VELVET INSANE – Rock ‘N’ Roll Glitter Suit (2021)
A few years back Sweden unleashed their latest-coolest cultural export, VELVET INSANE, an outrageously named glam band so hopelessly devoted to their glitter pop idols that they essentially transcended any rip-off allegations and became their very own thing.
To say they sound like Hanoi Rocks and Backyard Babies is so obvious that it’s completely besides the point. They’re basically the new version of both bands.
Formed in 2013 by guitarist Jesper Lindgren and describe themselves as a three-piece gang of rockers that reinvented glam rock by mixing the pop harmonies of the 70s with the heavy sound of today.
You can hear all that on their new album, “Rock ‘N’ Roll Glitter Suit” which title is pretty explicit…
