Bio
NEON NIGHTS: Stay Good Stay Gold Stay High: CD Early Guns‘n’Roses, chunky power chords, plus AC/DC’s speed comprise the two main ingredients of Seattle’s Neon Nights. This three piece has taken the elements of ‘80s metal and jumpstarted it back to life. With hardcore drumbeats the likes of G.B.H. and Circle Jerks plus screeching that conjures the ghost of Sam Kinison, it’s easy to see how these boys are tearing Seattle apart. Keep an eye on these three. Recommended. –Kristen K (Rockin' Stan) .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Seattle trio Neon Nights pulls off the sweet trick of simultaneously conjuring the sounds of a Sunset Strip rock den and a Lower East Side NYC hardcore crust-hole, both circa 1987. The former comes courtesy of rippin' riffs loud, thick, dirty, and devil-horned, and solos nimble and flashy — guitarwork that reeks beautifully of Schlitz, burning rubber, Ace Frehley sweat, and raw groupie sex. The latter comes mainly from frontman Lou Molitch's unhinged shrieks — a hair-on-fire, I'm-being-chased-by-a-pack-of-demonhounds delivery that's reminiscent of another Lou (Koller, of Sick of it All), cut with a smidgen of Sam Kinison. And Neon Nights hammers its crowds with tunes like "Born to Die Hard" ("Knowin' nothin' but to keep keepin' on/For the wine, the women, and the song/Gonna give it all I got, all I got 'til it's gone") and "Party Song" ("It's a party, let's party!/Hey, hey, hey, hey...yeaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!") with nary a trace of irony or calculated retroism. These guys really seem to live it. You may want to, as well... .. .. .. .. .. ..
