It is very seldom that Denmark produces a super band within the Hard Rock genre.
Vegas Vampire is a new band featuring some of the best Hard Rock musicians in Denmark.
The band is fronted by bassist and singer Emil Bendixen, who played bass in
Mike Tramp's band on the "Recovering the Wasted Years" album.
Mike Tramp is Bendixen's connection to guitarist Rene Shades who played guitar in Tramps touring band. Rene Shades had been playing on the first sleaze record in Denmark, namely Sateria's "Crash Bang Boom".
Rounding off the "who's who in Danish Hard Rock" is Martin Slott, who has played in
Push and Martie Peters Group. Slott's characteristic groove certainly makes
Vegas Vampire a rock monster.
The single
Love Sick is a teaser from the forthcoming album, which won't be out till early 2009. The music is modern Hard Rock in the vein of
Nickelback with more grooves. The
Nickelback comparison is apparent since singer Emil Bendixen sometimes sounds a bit like Chad Kroeger. The production is super and provides
Vegas Vampire with the right ammunition to stand as a powerful band.
Early 2009 seem like a long waiting time because
Love Sick really worked up an appetite for more. It is impossible to judge the band after one song, but
Love Sick is an exciting and fresh track from the seasoned rockers.
Vegas Vampire's debut album "Chapter 1" is one to watch!
