Vibrating, hard, bluesy and heavy rock with quite a dose of punk, you could call it. Like if Guns’n’Roses, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Motley Crüe, Accept, The Rolling Stones and the Beastie Boys all got together smoking weed for a week, and then just ran their heads together in one giant crash.
The second album, “The World of Voodoo”, is a journey through swamps and magic, through hell, nightmares and delusions. But most of all it’s a rock’n'roll adventure where the band steps it all up a notch, exploring new grounds and pushing the limits of the well-known ones.
The World of Voodoo Tour started started in early summer and saw a highlight at the rock festival Skogsröjet together with D-A.D, W.A.S.P. Entombed, Hardcore Superstars, Electric Boys et al. The tour culminates August 27th at Mejeriet in Lund with the relese party of the new album “The World of Voodoo”.
The Story…
The first seeds of the band was sown as the two musicians, misfits, and long-time friends Maniac Daniels and Bedlam started writing songs together on an intoxicated night in Lund, Sweden. The songs survived the night and demanded attention whereas the two companions started playing with the thought of creating a band out of this flash of inspiration.
Said and done, Killer Clan of F.U.N. was formed in the beginning of 2009 with Maniac Daniels on vocals and harmonica, Bedlam on guitars, the youngster Big Boned Barabas on drums and the no-good Ugly Dog on bass guitar.
The first self-titled album was recorded and released in April 2009 and the band started touring. Unfortunately, the demise of Ugly Dog (after yet another intoxicated night in Lund) forced the band to a halt. But only for a week or two; the delusional The Mutt soon joined the band and they were back on track again.
Touring for the rest of the year, the band yearned for a second guitarist, as they felt that they weren’t able to perform the songs in the intended way. An ad in a web magazine solved this as wood-headed farmer boy Stuff joined the band in the beginning of 2010.
Everything was fine, and the band seemed to be cruising right to the very heights of the rock community when a new disaster struck the band: The Mutt disappeared after getting lost in the woods, right after The Stockholm Rock Out festival in Autumn 2010. But yet again, the band were fortunate; auditions were held and The Rock stepped in, crushing all competition.
The Rock also stepped right into the creation of Killer Clan of F.U.N.’s second studio album “The World of Voodoo” in early 2011, a creative process that continued until late spring as the band threw themselves into the intense “The World of Voodoo”-tour…
