"Post-rockabilly for the un-perplex-able . . . mustachioed singer Kim Kix . . . (literally) meows and barks at the crowd, dipping his guitar in Chuck Berry-style knee-jerks as his head rolls back to reveal the loose, bulbous eyes of a maniac."

What do you think of when you hear the name "PowerSolo"? 'Round Denmark way, the moniker apparently conjures the trash-rock psychobilly legacy of Hasil Adkins, the Cramps, and Southern Culture on the Skids. Powersolo may be a power trio, but in this case, the prog-metal acrobatics of rush are replaced with something they call "donkey punk." Two tremolo-loving chicken-scratch, rail-thin guitarists Kim Kix and Atomic Child. And drummer J.C. Benz playing his trade on just a snare, bass drum, and floor tom. It would've been good enough had PowerSolo hailed from the Land of NASCAR. But the fact that this exercise in B-movie punk-a-billy is coming from Aarhus, Denmark, adds plenty of delicious cognitive dissonance. "The next song goes out to Grandma. It's called "Stupid Little Bitch!""
Power Solo has toured with Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Heavy Trash, Chief Nowhere and others. They're touring in 2010 to promote their new album BLOODSKINBONES (Crunchy Frog).
