GODFATHERSOFPSYCHOBILLYV/A

GODFATHERS OF PSYCHOBILLY

Psychobilly arrived on the British music scene in the Eighties and has operated under the radar of the mainstream media. Yet the popularity of this street-level music has moved on to continental Europe and now flourishes in America, Australia and Japan. A number of rockabilly artists had a morbid fascination for death and decay that would later feed the psychobilly genre. Often too controversial for radio play in the Fifties, such songs proved meat and drink to the bands who rediscovered them three decades later. Godfathers of Psychobilly, rock on!
