God Save The Sin: Mad Sin Plays San Francisco



(Preview published in today's San Francisco Bay Guardian)

German psychobilly stalwarts Mad Sin have been honing a muscular and intense brand of music since the late 1980s, releasing classic slabs of rock 'n' roll like "God Save The Sin" to fans around the world. With every new visit, the group shows American fans that when it comes to psychobilly, the originals still do it better than any Hot Topic-outfitted kids. With his large size and intense demeanor, singer Koefte De Ville is an imposing figure on stage, even before his snarling vocals bring tales of delirium, Russian roulette, riots in paradise, and a neverending battle to dislodge a naughty little devil from his head.
