UNIQUE & INTERESTING TRIBUTE ACTS ... Nerdy Halen, The Spazmatics, Hairball, Nudist Priest, Mini Kiss and ?

Post by MetalSludgeCEO »

What about your local town?

Any cool, interesting acts, who are covering Popular Music, with a twist?

While touring around the world, I am always amazed at some of the cool bands, names and clever ideas that I see.

Obviously some have went international, like The Iron Maidens, Steel Panther, Mac Sabbath, etc...

What ya got?

Ready, Set, Links!

Back in the 90’s we had Creedence Clearwater Recycled.
They were great.

We have the Spazmatics in Orlando, led by Kurt Frolic from Riley's Guns. Pros at their instruments and always a good time. I love shit like this. Make me laugh, especially with solid musicianship, and I'll be the first in line.

I highly recommend Brown Sabbath if they come around, a great and highly talented band with a unique take on Sabbath!

Dread Zeppelin is the only correct answer.

Alive 85: Steve Unger of Metal Church reimaging Elvis as if he lived into the '80's. It's an absolute fucking trip.

They have been around for a while, but I recently saw Lez Zeppelin and they were unreal. They have all the gear so there were points where it sounded exactly like the records, I couldn't get over it. They are all female, not sure if they are all lesbians but the Jimi Page woman is legit, they all are. The only weird thing is the singer doesn't really sound like, or remind you of, Robert Plant. She sounds great & she can sing, but you wouldn't think she's be in a Zep cover band. Regardless, you should check them out if they come around.
