On Sunday night October 21 psychobilly legends the Nekromantix were headlining at El Corazon. I’ve lost count now how many times I’ve seen Nekromantix, but I know I’ll see them again and again. I went to see these guys play (same venue) when I was in a wheel chair as I’d just had knee surgery. …
Friday October 6 brought a return of psychobilly heroes the Nekromantix with a night of macabre themes. Lead singer and upright bassman Kim Nekroman came on stage wearing all black with his signature bass shaped like a child’s coffin with the head stock shaped like a cross.

The infamous Nekromantix headlined a night that had already heated up thanks to three stellar opening bands. More on …

Though psychobilly gods, The Nekromantix, played last, it’s a safe bet to say that there were two headliners, The Nekromantix and The Casualties. I’d say the Casualties stole the show.
