We think you need to know that Swedish fuzz rock legends TRUCKFIGHTERS are coming to New Zealand.
Like really soon.
"Let's rock out"
AUCKLAND – Kings Arms – Tues 7th May
WELLINGTON – Bodega – Wed 8th May
Truckfighters NZ Event
”The best band that’s ever existed” – Josh Homme
Watch the TRUCKFIGHTERS (Fuzzomentary) Trailer 2011
Despite claiming to be formed in Mexico, TRUCKFIGHTERS are in fact an Örebro based desert Stoner concern.
With three classic stoner rock albums, a documentary – a “fuzzomentary” – released in 2011, and tours across Europe, USA and South America under their belt, TRUCKFIGHTERS have been blowing away audiences since 2001. The three piece from Örebro, Sweden have been hailed for “putting more rock energy into a single performance than a good proportion of bands do into a career’s worth of shows…” – Terrorizor
Their sound has been described as classic desert rock, similar to bands like Queens Of The Stone Age, Dozer, Fu Manchu (with whom they have toured), and Kyuss.
“Truckfighters blast your ears with their unique take on modern rock” – Metal Hammer
“…The power and charm to make society grind to a halt…" –Kerrang
With a new, as yet untitled album set to be released this year, expect to hear some of the new riff-filled tunes from the face-melting kings of fuzz rock!
TRUCKFIGHTERS come to NZ for two insane shows in Wellington and Auckland this May, with support from Welly faves, Red Sky Blues.
AUCKLAND– Kings Arms – Tues 7th May
WELLINGTON– Bodega – Wed 8th May
Tickets available from http://www.undertheradar.co.nz/, Real Groovy (Auckland) and Slow Boat Records (Wellington)
