   About GLORIOUS BANKROBBERS
First of all, don't forget that Life is incredibly short, love and earn love. And don't take yourself or your band or your job so damn seriously. It's only Rock'n'Roll

So Whappen?
Formed originally summer 1983, First lineup was: Olle Hillborg, vocals, Jonas Pettersson and Mikael Jansson, guitars, Staffan Björkman, bass and Jörgen on drums. See band pics for the first gig at jonas parents house midsummer 1983. Mikael, Staffan and Jörgen left the band and the bassplayer Pelham and drummer Oden joined in on the first album "Glorious Bankrobbers" 1984 (produced by the cross-eyed winer dude Kee Marcello in the friends list below :). GB toured in Sweden + a few gigs in Norway (Sardines 17 May 1987, Jeeesus!) and got a reputation of being one of Stockholms most explosive live acts by then. Mikael from the first lineup came back, Pelham left the band -87 and Lake left Front of House for the bass. The second album "Dynamite Sex Dose" was recorded spring 1989. The title song video was seen on MTV's Headbangers ball a few times. Tours in Sweden + Norway followed, from KB Malmo up to forgotthename club in Tromso + support act with Yngwie Malmsteen at Johanneshov Ice Stadium. GB set at least 2 all-time-high-number-of-beers-sold (Cityhallen, Stockholm and Stedet, Oslo) during that time. Possibly also all-time-high-number-of-free-beers-drunk-by-the-band at Stedet. Oslo (100 Ringnes in 4 hours). They also went to New York november 1990 and made a few gigs around Manhattan/Queens/Staten Island (Cat Club, CBGBs, Spoodee Yodies, Wolf Club, Bond Street Cafe, Red Spot. Where are you today, Laura, Crazy Sue, Tommy Gunn, Rick Shoor, J Stavros, Mike Millivolte??). A live album from the CBGB's gig was released early 1991.

It went restless 91-92 and Olle left the band for Backstreet Girls (Norway). The rest of the band reformed together with a new singer Michael Oran under the name Mental Hippie Blood but that's another story.

Now reunited again but without Mikael (=-1 guitar) and in January 2007 they released the album "the Glorious Sound of Rock'n'Roll" containing new recorded previously released and unreleased songs. Recorded at XTC Stockholm, mixed by Chris Laney. If you have the chance to come down on a show, just do it! We promise you a heavy happy hell!

Jamie Mallender is the bass player for former Black Sabbath vocalist, Tony 
Martin.  He has just released a solo album to excellent reviews. CD Baby 
describe the album as, "A bass guitar oriented fusion, crossover, progressive 
instrumental album featuring a mishmash of genres, time changes and mood 
swings with a loose Sci-Fi B-Movie feel - more musical journey than virtuoso 
showcase, nevertheless displaying impressive chops."
