Flaming Cocks

Flaming Cocks had been at the beginning a side project of five musicians from Prague but it slowly became their main activity. The members come from different backgrounds, from different bands: Vertigo (ska), 2v1 (ska-punk), Drunken Boomerang (ska), BadTones (psychobilly) and Dreadrot (HC), but there's one thing they all have in common and that's their passion for Rock'n'Roll! Influenced by bands like the Misfits, Turbonegro, Mötorhead, Mad Sin, The Peacocks but also by Elvis Presley and many others they've created their own version of punk, rock'n'roll, hardrock and hardcore. Flaming Cocks play Turbo Rock'n'Roll! Their music is a mixture of punk playfulness and hard-core attack. All is wrapped up in a rock'n'roll veil. Slapping bass, melodic singalongs, hard guitars and attacking percussions are rushing ahead like a steam locomotive. Crazy drive! Flaming Cocks were formed in 2002 and played over 150 of gigs and appeared on big summer festivals in the Czech Republic such as Rock For People, Trutnov Open Air or Mighty Sounds, toured Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary. The band played with many great independent bands such as Misfits, The Adicts, Demented Are Go!, The Peacocks, Peter Pan Speedrock, Maxeen, No Comply, Up To Vegas, Defiance and others. Thier first album called Cockain was released in May 2006. Band ends with activities in Rock café on 2 February 2008. http://myspace.com/flamingcocks http://www.flamingcocks.zewl.com Read more on Last.fm.
