Psycho Mutants

"We are always so ready to think that any obscure band from Manchester or from the depths of Memphis are worth our time of day, because “they know...” and so equally ready to dismiss anyone who comes from a country that isn’t on our mental map of Rock’n’Roll’s “homeland”. But certain places are deserving of just as much interest. The Psycho Mutants are from Hungary, a country that shares Transylvania with Romania — the ghostly region where Bram Stocker imagined Dracula’s genesis. So are the Psycho Mutants Hungarian vampires? One thing is for sure – they do have a few things in common with the famous Count: his singularity, strength, tenacity and dark side... Musically, it’s nothing we have ever listened to before: a mutation of music we’ve only felt, not just heard: rock’n’roll so intense it could have been played by hank Williams if he’d been raised in Dracula’s castle, disguised as chris Isaak, drunk on Palinka (Hungarian schnapps). The Psycho Mutants are one of the most important rock’n’roll band of their country, and they owe it to two things: their stage performance and the charismatic personality of their singer, whose voice evokes all the emotion of one of Johnny cash’s last albums."
