The joystix has formed in 2005 july on the ruins of 2 former band members punk rockabilly band called Sonicdollz. (Blondie – Singer/guitar player, songwriter, Jimm-Drummer). As a third member Brownstone on bass joined the group.
The style of JOYSTIX best defined as punk/rock’n’roll. The main influences are such bands like Iggy and the stooges, Ramones, New york dolls, and also the definitive bands of the scandinavian rock scene like Backyard Babies, Danko Jones, Gluecifer, or The Hellacopters.
The first record titled Playin’ with Fire was released int he autumn of 2006 by french indie label Shotgun Generation Records/Active entertainment, and was distributed by PIAS in Europe. This record got several positive reviews in several fanzines, music magazines all around the continent. After the releasing of the record the band had the opportuinity to play in european countries as Netherland, Germany, Romania, Serbia etc. In the same year the band shot a videoclip to the song Better Things to Do c. which was aired several times on the hungarian music channel Viva.. (See it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqt8vgrumFE&mode=related&search= )
In the beginning of 2007 the band got an offer from the french label Kicking records to record 5 songs and make a split record with the french band Flying donut.
In the spring of 2007 the split record titled This Machine Makes Loud Records was released on Cd and also on Vinyl. During this time one of hungary’s biggest label made a deal with the band to distribute the record in Hungary.
In 2007 the american record label 272 records gave the opportunity to the band to have one song in a compilation titled „Riot on sunset vol.3” and also a few months later they released a split record together with the australian band Mercy Kills. The record got the name „Suburban threat”
In october of 2007 the band had a 3 week long european tour together with the bands Flying donuts and Safety first gonzales. They played 20 gigs in 4 countries in this 3 weeks.
In may of 2008 the band has released the 2nd full length CD titled „And joystix for all..”The band set the goal to catch the energy of their live performances in this record. After the successful European tour the band was full of vitality and creative energy to capture the vibe and the power of their hard hitting rock ’n’ roll in their new record. With this 10 new songs they also wanted to show the world their musical diversity and dug way deep down to their roots of 1970’s R’n’R / Glam/Punk rock movement .
Started the recordings in 2007 November with the leading of Blondie as a producer the band has reached the goal. You can find a wide spectrum of musical moods on this record. Sing-a-long catchy tunes like the Ramones inspired Backseat love and Banana Bar or really dark, psychedelic journeys through songs like Medicine man or Handful of hate gives a complete picture. Also they show their respect to their Punk Rock/New wave heroes with a great version of Lord Of The New Church classic Russian Roulette
In 2008 November the band had the chance to open to one of their biggest favorite the Backyard Babies in Budapest, and also they gained plenty of new fans with their rocking live performance.
In late 2009 the band went through some personal changes.
Brownstone and the guys said goodbye to each other and 2 new members joined the band. Zoli Marton on bass and Andras Greff on guitar.
With this line-up the band’s stronger than ever, in the rest of 2009 they already scheduled several live performances in the Hungarian scene, and they also start to prepare to the recordings of the new joystix album which planned release date is 2010 april-may.
