About the Band

BOBBY'S BAR

The voodoobilly instro-mental spook-out that is BOBBY'S BAR came into existence during the mid-aughts Tokyo garage & psychobilly revival with the resurgence of gorefests like Back from the Grave. The BOBBY'S BAR spook-crew even hosted their own party titled Voodoo Cocktails where they played with burlesque dancers shedding their boas on a monthly basis. Their first release "Shrunken Head Familia" is a haunted frenzy and supernatural force in its own right!

PACIFICTION REVIEW:

There is the kind of paranoid frenzy that you will experience only when lost in the jungle being chased by cannibals who wish to do unspeakable things to you... or you could listen to BOBBY'S BAR's first outing to get the same effect. Frontman NAOYA wields his guitar like a hypnotist channeling gypsy nightmares and casting bluesy hoodoo curses while the enchantingly stunning MIRAKURU and fiendishly devilish SHARK hold the rhythm as steady as a pirate's swagger. Imagine GOGOL BORDELLO meeting the CRAMPS in a Transylvanian honky-tonk and you come close to what "Shrunken Head Familia" sounds like. Add a touch of voodoo and you're almost there!
