It all started back in 2005, when Andy and Rikkidecided their fate. Sleaze metal is the direction they picked as they recruited Janiee Teaze and Lefty Guns and became LIPSTIXX ‘N’ BULLETZ. It only took the boys a short time before they released their first EP “Livin’ in the Fastlane” back in 2006, and looked to gain a strong fan base to make their trek to stardom.
Now in 2007, the boys release “Bite The Bullet” and the excitement is on. The opening track “Love in a Needle” is a bite on the neck as the sting of crushing harmonies is in full bloom. Next up is “Do or Die” that has the drive of melodic sleaze rock. The vocals by Andy Lipstixx are in the vein of BABYLON BOMBS and the catchy guitar riffs by Rikki Bullet enhance the track. This is one of the highlight songs on the disc. . Another great track is “All this Time” that has some tasty guitar slinging and the punch to up root other sleaze rockers in Stockholm.
One thing is to look the sleaze part with great stage presences and make-up but if your music sucks you will end up in nowhere land. These boys have what it takes with slashing guitar riffs, good catchy lyrics and good vocals. I like every song and I even hear hints of a New Jersey band called KIDD GLOVES with Lisa St. Ann. The last track is just another cream of the crop track that kicked the ass of other fallen sleaze kings. With a little better production and a full-length CD I can see LIPSTIXX ‘N’ BULLETZ reaching status of CRASHDÏET.
