KRISTY MAJORS AND THE THRILL KILLS Set To Release Debut Album By Larry Petro, News Monkey Tuesday, June 10, 2014 @ 9:34 AM
With roots that feed from the East Coast ‘70s punk scene to the West Coast ‘80s metal scene, KRISTY MAJORS AND THE THRILL KILLS are delivering from the sweet spot that exists in between.
Kristy Majors And The Thrill Kills tracklisting:
The first single, “Broken Lip”, is the perfect example of this synergy, with its blistering speed, classic punk guitar sound, lyrics punched with attitude and two-minute run time. It's available as a free download HERE.
“I write and record music to please myself these days,” said Majors, who is releasing the album independently and going back to basics with fan-focused promotion: big shows in intimate venues, crazy live videos, and music that transcends generations. With decades of diverse experience, Majors is going “back to my roots.”
Majors grew up in NYC, attending all-ages shows at CBGBs and collecting firsthand the energy from epic punks like THE RAMONES, DEAD BOYS and NEW YORK DOLLS. Later, he took in glam and rock shows, Broadway plays, and the cutting edge art scene. Majors packed all that in his suitcase bound for LA, and by the mid-'80s was signed to MCA with the glam rock band he formed, PRETTY BOY FLOYD. Leather Boyz With Electric Toys sold more than half a million copies, and the band has existed in various forms ever since.
On stage, Majors will be joined by guitarist Nick Rozz (BULLETBOYS), bassist JK Famous (PRETTY BOY FLOYD) and drummer Ben Graves (MURDERDOLLS).
The band has its live debut - and record release party - at the legendary Viper Room in Los Angeles on June 21st. The evening includes a VIP meet-and-greet in the downstairs lounge, and a video shoot.
