Psychobilly or Psycho was born in GB in late 70th. It was like music for people who considered rockabilly to soft and punk – to simple. Originally it is a simple mix of rockabilly with punk guitars and lyrics mostly about horror movies and related stuff.
This band is one of the examples of best modern underground psycho bands. It is way better that dozens of newcomers on these scene and even some of the old school feelas. The stonecutters play very catchy and danceable psycho/rockabilly and Mad Marge presents one of the most spectacular voices I ever heard in psycho. She’s the exact mix of the retro singing techniques with rude punk approach, perfectly holding the balance between these two styles.
Their 2005 debut “Mad Marge and The Stonecutters” kicks off right from the first song “Monsters” and just swings into a whirlwind of hot-rods, rock-n-roll and black humor. While many of the modern bands still keep searching for some new sound, bands like this present the things that were making people crazy for fifty years. With a little modern twist of course.
