Fourth Rock Entertainment presents.....
NOTE - WE ARE SUPPORTING ANVIL!!
The Deadly Romantics is a hard rock and sleaze metal band that was formed in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, in 2005. The brainchild of frontman Thunderfuck (real name unknown), the band quickly gained notoriety for its provocative style, blending raunchy lyrics with gritty, high-energy performances. Over the years, they have cultivated a dedicated following, thanks in part to their larger-than-life stage presence and unapologetic approach to rock and roll.
Critics lauded their music for embracing the grimy, rebellious spirit of rock and roll, with some describing their sound as "dirtier than a Welsh railway track" and "sleazier than a back-alley preacher." This distinctive style and their raucous live performances have continued to draw comparisons to bands like Zodiac Mindwarp, Guns N’ Roses, and GG Allin.
Live performances are central to the band's identity. Thunderfuck and The Deadly Romantics are known for their unfiltered, high-octane shows, with Thunderfuck himself often engaging in provocative antics that amplify the chaotic energy of their music. They have toured extensively, both in the UK and Canada, performing at venues that cater to their gritty rock and roll vibe. Their UK tour, originally scheduled for 2020, was postponed due to the pandemic but later rescheduled for 2022, and returning to the UK in 2024.
The band’s music is a celebration of the wild, rebellious spirit of rock and roll, with lyrics that often deal with themes of lust, excess, and chaos. Their unapologetic approach has garnered them a devoted fanbase but also stirred controversy due to the explicit nature of their songs. Nevertheless, they are a band that wears their vulgarity as a badge of honor, creating a sense of rawness and danger that many modern rock acts lack.
As of now, Thunderfuck and The Deadly Romantics continue to tour and perform, maintaining their presence as a band that defies mainstream trends in favor of a rough, untamed sound. Their legacy is one of rebellion, sleaze, and a fierce commitment to keeping the spirit of rock and roll alive..
ANVIL
Reviewers described Anvil as a pioneering heavy metal band that has been popular since the 1980s and continues to record and tour 42 years later. Anvil's antics on and off stage, along with their determination to keep going have been the foundation for this legendary act.
Anvil has released twenty studio albums, and has been cited as having influenced many notable heavy metal groups, including: Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, and Metallica.
This iconic Canadian heavy metal band from Toronto , Ontario, formed in 1978. The band consists of Steve "Lips" Kudlow (vocals, guitar), Robb Reiner (drums) and Chris Robertson (bass).
The band, in particular Kudlow and Reiner, was the subject of the 2008 documentary film, 'Anvil! The Story of Anvil', directed by the screenwriter and former Anvil roadie,Sacha Gervasi. Upon its release, the film garnered critical acclaim from many major publications, and has since brought the band renewed recognition, including opening slots with AC/DC and Saxon. Appearances at major heavy metal festivals, including Download, Loud Park, Hellfest, and many independent music festivals, also followed the release of the film.
