Culture is defined as the enlightenment and sophistication acquired through education and exposure to the arts.
Culture Killers provide the latest — and also one of the greatest if they have anything to do with it — answers to the essential musical question: What can a poor boy do except for play in a rock’n’roll band? Then they factor that into the time-honored equation of sex, drugs and rock’n’roll to create a sound that’s loud’n’proud as well as hard as hell and rocking to the max. And in their songs as well as their spare time, they celebrate the rebellious decadence that is at the very core of the true rock’n’roll spirit.
The Hollywood-based foursome — singer/guitarist David George, lead guitarist Delta Starr, bassist Johnny Tokes and drummer Johnny G — have been stoking the big buzz from their very first gigs with a sound that, as Music Connection notes, “is loud, rough and penetrates you to the core.” And, as their band name implies, it’s music that’s all about shooting out your TV, smashing that Xbox and trashing the computer and getting off yer ass and out to live gigs where real rock’n’roll still reigns supreme.
Even though Culture Killers seek to incite the kids — and true blue rockers of any age — to break the corporate chains of slavery to the weapons of mass distraction, they’re happy to use the modern media, being the clever lads that they are, to spread the word and the sound of this classic band in the making. To wit, the group made its debut television appearance on Playboy TV’s “Night Calls,” rocking the socks and the panties off of 800,000 viewers with a sound that takes the lead from where such superstars as Led Zeppelin, Kiss, Van Halen and Guns N’ Roses left off and then propels rock well into the 21st Century. Since then they’ve blown the doors and the roofs off of packed L.A. clubs as they seize the reins of the Southern California rock scene to launch Culture Killers into the big time.
And now with their debut EP, Culture Killers are ready to rock the planet. With such irresistible, gut punching tunes as “Gone Hollywood” (“Hell yeah, we’re living in a dream land, riding high on the whiskey and the cocaine”) and “Let Me Drive,” the band hot wires the rock’n’roll ride, seizes the wheel, slams the shifter into high gear and puts the pedal to the metal to reach maximum musical overdrive. It’s hard and heavy rock with snarling guitars and butt-shaking rhythms that’s not just ready for the arena but also the after show party to end all parties. Co-produced and mixed by Rob Beaton, whose credits include work with such acts as Santana, Todd Rundgren, Sammy Hagar and hard rock guitar wizard Buckethead, the disc is a simmering slice of rock that’s ready to take no prisoners on the band’s rise to the top.
George and Starr had already ruled the Midwest rock roost with their band Moaning Lisa in and around their hometown of Kansas City, earning a nomination for Sexiest Cover from Playboy for one of their album releases before moving the band to Hollywood. Similar, Johnny G and Tokes cut their teeth on the Philadelphia and South Jersey circuit before heading west to play in the big leagues. Once George and Starr joined forces with Johnny G., who then roped in Tokes, a new band of brothers was born and christened Culture Killers. Their aim: to wipe out the entertainment competition and restore real rock’n’roll as the cock of the walk in today’s music.
“It was instant camaraderie,” says Johnny G, “Everyone was busting each other’s balls like we were old friends, throwing it back as good as we were getting it. We were all like, okay, this is gonna work. ”There were times when I could barely pay the rent, put food in my mouth and gas in the car,” says George. “But I’m playing the music I love with guys that I love, and that’s what it’s really all about in rock’n’roll.”
“If you have any kind of faith at all in what you’re doing,” adds Johnny G, “you have to believe that the road map of destiny has been laid out here - in how we ran into each other and joined forces. I feel really blessed that we found each other.”
Culture Killers are ready to not just get the party started but keep it rolling, and also prove that real rock’n’roll will never die.
Each song is produced by Rob Beaton of Delvue Records and the Culture Killers and is mixed and mastered by Rob Beaton. Delvue Records’ Glenn Schusterman is Executive Producer.
