The Origin
Vienna, 1965: Jimmy Juvenile, Paul Primus, Randy Rancid and Marv Marvelous meet for irregular rehearsals, somewhere in a Viennese storeroom. Sir Murdock Moriarty and Charmin’ Valory join incidentally after they have missed their last train back home, thus completing the band's line-up. They are not heard of for a long time. That is no surprise, because rehearsal-rooms were not heated very well back in ’65, and winters still were real winters in those days. In short: The band falls into a cold rigor from which they do not awake until the hot summer of 2006. Recovered from the shock, the band quickly looks for a new favourite pub, in order to find a band moniker. Several hours and twice as much beers later, no result has been reached. It should be psychedelic and provoke pleasant feelings inside the auditory canal – Psychedelicate! Henceforth, the band serves a mixture of raw garage-rock and psychedelic beat, usually culminating in sudorific live-performances. |
