For all bookings, enquiries & proposals please contact Frankenbok via the above email. Please give as much detail as possible. All offers will be taken into consideration & responded to in a timely manner. Please do not message us via myspace for band bookings.
Frankenbok's 5 releases since their conception in 1997 have seen the bands sound evolve into a blistering yet mature blend of original metal. In 2008, their latest offering ‘The Last Ditch Redemption’ (Prime Cuts/MGM) reveals a prominent mix of straight up heavy metal, old school thrash, big southern rock styled riffs, unified with a steadfast guttural vocal. The precision filled musicianship does not falter during vigorous live performance & ensures all round satisfaction for the Frankenbok enthusiast or any first time listener.
2008 also saw Frankenbok embark on their most recent Australian tour ‘The Other Side of Hell - Tales of Murder & Redemption' with over 30 shows that had them not only hitting the capital cities, but also covering regional Australia. Frankenbok have played several major festivals including Big Day Out, Metal 4 The Brain, Overcranked & Offshore. They have toured Australia & New Zealand extensively, including top support slots with international acts Slayer, MachineHead, Soilwork, Skinlab, Fear Factory & System of a Down.
2009 will see the release of a new 3 part DVD, a new full length album & extensive touring both nationally & overseas.
"The lead-filled 12” length of hosepipe hits the back of my head & induces a small skull fracture & takes me to the ground. Teeth are spat out or swallowed, breathing becomes difficult. Or to suffer similar brutality, just open your CD tray & pop in this latest offering from Frankenbok." www.live4metal.com
"Strangers run up to each other & randomly throw punches. A sort of fight-club plays out to the murderous thunder of Frankenbok" S.J Finch - The Drum, Perth
"Huge melodies, catchy riffs & a towering performance from McDougall. The Last Ditch Redemption is an ambitious effort for Frankenbok, but one that the band has managed to pull off with ease. Frankenbok will have only proven that nothing can kill them off, & that right now they're stronger than they've ever been.” 8/10 - Justin Donnelly - www.themetalforge.com
