BIFFERS

Hailing from Livorno, on the west coast of Tuscany, Biffers first became active in 2009, creating a classic punk rock sound inspired by the California scene of the late 1980's, but also drawing from influences of R&B and British indie rock. They came to the attention of Kung Fu Records when Vandals bassist and label owner Joe Escalante took notice of one of their infectious jams posted directly to the Kung Fu Records Facebook page! Says Joe, "They posted an amazing song right on our page. They made it very easy for us. The Biffers are one of those bands, like the Ramones, wiht the ability to break down a genre, and build it back up again with an innocence and simplicity that was somehow lost along the way as others in the field have taken punk rock for granted. The result is a happy re- interpretation of punk rock where each song hits you like a shot of Galliano, which by no coincidence is distilled and bottled in The Biffers hometown. This album is a drinking game waiting to happen!" Biffers released a DIY 7" in Jan 2011, while touring in their home country. In August 2013 they released their first album Whoa! in CD with Inconsapevole Records, followed by several other shows in their home country and five European Tours promoting the album. “Whoa!” is digitally released worldwide on August 5th, 2014 through Kung Fu Records. In July 2015 Biffers release a 4-tracks EP called “Frankie Road”, through Greenway Records on vinyl and Kung Fu Records digitally, supported by two more European tours, for a total of ten countries. Their second album “Vice” is released on April 15th 2016, through Inconsapevole Records on CD and digitally through Kung Fu Records. From the two European tours of 2016, Biffers are back to a four-member line-up. On Christmas 2016 Biffers release a DIY 7” split EP with long time friends Crystal Newton, only available in the vinyl format. Your favourite gang in town
