The Horrorpops

The Horrorpops are one of my favorite bands, along with Social Distortion, the Nekromantix, Motley Crue... etc. (there is no real order to the listing). They are a psychobilly band. Psychobilly is a fusion of music genres that include punk rock, rock n' roll, rockabilly and other genres.
The group formed in 1996 when Kim Nekroman was preforming a concert in Cologne, Germany. Patricia Day was also preforming with her band at the time, Peanut Pump Gun. Patricia's band opened for his. They met backstage and they are now married. It is kind of a cool story if you think about it, even when you find out that they were both from (living in) Copenhagen, Denmark, but never met each other.
They recruited Patricia's friends, Mille and Kamilla Vanilla, as go-go dancers. Henrik Stendahl became their dummer and Casper Holbek became the second guitarist. Patricia Day was on stand-up bass/lead vocalist and Kim Nekroman was the first guitarist/back-up vocalist.
They have put out three albums so far:


  • Hell Yeah! (2004) Hellcat/Epitaph Records
  • Bring It On! (2005) Hellcat/Epitaph Records
  • Kiss Kiss Kill Kill (2008) Hellcat/ Epitaph Records 

  • These are just four of their songs that I like. I would put more, but the others have things that restrict me from posting them.
