January 27, 2010, 14 years ago
Frontiers Records has announced the release of CRAZY LIXX' second album, New Religion, on March 19th in Europe and April 6th in North America
According to a press release:
Crazy Lixx, one of the most exciting bands to come out of the sleaze-rock movement renaissance in Sweden, together with CRASHDÏET, HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, BABYLON BOMBS and VAINS OF JENNA, are back with the release of the brand new album entitled New Religion.
Crazy Lixx was formed in 2002 in Malmö, Sweden. The core lineup up until the first album consisted of vocalist Danny Rexon (also known as Dirtchild Danny or D.C. Danny), guitarist Vic Zino, drummer Joél Cirera and bass player Loke Rivano. The current lineup features guitarist Andy Dawson in Vic Zino's place after the latter joined Hardcore Superstar.
Crazy Lixx debuted with Loud Minority in November 2007, an album that notwithstanding an underground release, received a great acclaim from the media and fans, reaching position #2 in the national Swedish Hard Rock chart.
The band spent all of 2008 and parts of 2009 touring like hell all over Europe and writing material for the new album, working hard to define their own music style which, even though was often compared to the likes of DEF LEPPARD, KISS, WARRANT and SKID ROW, it has now matured and evolved in a personal and ultra-melodic interpretation of the sleaze-arena hard rock style.
The final result is New Religion, the new album which includes a dozen hard rock gems (out of over the double amount of songs written) recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, along with producer Chris Laney (EUROPE, Crashdïet, CANDLEMASS).
"We set out with one goal, and that was to beat the living s**t out of Loud Minority with these new songs, and if you ask me, we've beaten it black and blue. I can't wait to get these new songs played live", states singer Danny Rexon.
And thanks to killer anthems like 'My Medicine' and such cuts as 'The Witching Hour', 'Children Of The Cross', 'Rock And A Hard Place' and '21 'Til I Die' (just to name a few), the guys can consider their mission accomplished and look at 2010 as a key year to break their talent on to the international markets.
New Religion includes the following tracks:
'Rock And A Hard Place'
'My Medicine'
'21 'Til I Die'
'Blame It On Love'
'Road To Babylon'
'Children Of The Cross'
'The Witching Hour'
'Lock Up Your Daughter'
'She's Mine'
'What Of Our Love'
'Desert Bloom'
'Voodoo Woman'
