Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Has anyone else heard their new album Stockholm Syndrome, it?s fucking great!
They, instead of The Darkness should be titled "the saviours of rock"

 :smoking:

/Estranger

Fuck yeah! Who was keeping rock n' roll before the Darkness? Respect.

I love it!

I saw them last saturday and they were awesome! I?m so amazed, wow! And Dregen?s crazy..
They had 4 gig?s in Finland and the one i saw was sold out and audience really loved them!

yeah! i loved them since right before the Makin Enemies.. album... i downloaded the "duke nukem theme"... got Get Dead... i figured out who it was and got hooked!!!

they rock! im seeing them May 4 in Oslo!! jeeeej!

isnt it strange that the most popular band play ONE show in a country, and a not so popular band plays 3/6 shows in different places.....   : ok:

EDIT: i bought the "special" version of Stockholm Syndrome with Shut The Fuck up, and it really is the greatest hard rock song in 2003!! its fast, vicious and got everything!! too bad it wasnt on the normal album!

What is everyones favorite song from Stockholm Syndrome?

I have been listening A Song For The Outcast a lot lately, it?s great! I think Friends is a bit weird..

For those who hasn?t heard of Backyard Babies, check out intro at www.backyardbabies.com (http://www.backyardbabies.com)

Gotta love Earn The Crown....

I think Friends is an awesome song...so cool to hear people like joey ramone, kory clarke, danko jones and nina persson perform....

 : ok:

/Estranger

i love Shut The Fuck up the most... i HATE One Sound.... it sounds too much like Turbonergro to me..

Well yeah, but don?t forget Michael Monroe!  ;)

I like Friends, but at 1st it sounded quite much different than other BB songs..

I agree with you, friends is a bit special....shit how could I forget Mike Monroe.... :beer:

/Estranger

I'm really sick of them. They seem so very concerned about looking cool and being rock n roll instead of writing good music. Total 13 is still awesome though.

I saw them a couple of weeks ago, and yeah it was great!
Pure Rock N Roll!!

Top 3 on SS

Minus celsius
Friends
Be myself and I

I just heard, that Backyard Babies (+ Mot?rhead, Monster Magnet, Stray Cats) are going to play in Ruisrock-festifal (Finland) next summer!

Wooo, i?ll be there!

im going to a show on thursday!! wooohooo!! cant wait :D

jeeeej! saw their show thursday... they kick ASS!!! IMO they are a better live band than maiden...  : ok:
i was in the middle of the crowd, and i hardly saw Dregen at all... he was down "dancing" and shit on his knees.... like slash does.... awesome!

they didnt play to many songs from SS... but it kicked fucking arse :D

Have any of you heard the old Backyard Babies-song called Gods Favourite? Tobbe B?vik sings and Nicke plays bass, i think.

I love it and it reminds me of old GNR.

Sorry, Nicke does vocals, not Tobbe. My mistake.

i have that "From Demos To Demons" "box" of theirs...  the first songs sounds preeeetty shitty :p cool to hear how the band eveolved from Tyrant to Backyard Babies though  : ok:

(The link is in swedish)

Dregen stole a cab last saturday night, and he was arrested by the police. They kept him locked up over night.
Tourmanager said, that all the plans/tour will go on as usual.

I don?t know, if it?s true or just a gossip..

These guys sound good - may have to buy and download some of their stuff.

All of their albums are great and i really can?t say which one is the best, so buy it all!  ;)

Here?s some awsome songs to download;

Earn the Crown
Heaven 2.9
Hey, I?m Sorry
Minus Celsius
The Clash
Look At You
Mommy?s Little Monster (Social Distortion cover, but it?s great!)
A Song For The Outcast

heaven 2,9 = the happiest hard rock song EVER!!!
when i hear that song i wanna jump up and dance!

its the coolest song in its year! :D

I just found some really cool pics from the band. Pics are from their Paris gig at may.

Am i the only one still posting here..

Anyway, i just came home from Ankkarock-festival. Backyard Babies were playing and they were absolutely great. Here?s some pics http://piiparipojan.net/ankka/

The weather was terrible as you can see..

Check out excellent live pics from http://www.rocknfilmrolls.com/

These are very good!  :o

This reminds me of the VR gig.

BB were a lot better than the opener VR had in Stockholm.  : ok:

I didn't recognize more than two songs so I have no idea what they played, but I guess they were good.

Just a bit ironic that I travel from Sweden to England to watch Swedes play rock n' roll.  :hihi:



/jarmo

After a highly succesful support tour with Velvet Revolver in Europe, the band will do a show at Tavastia, Helsinki (FIN) on October 12. The show, which will be recorded by Finnish TV (YLE1), will most likely end up on an official DVD. Release date t.b.a

www.backyardbabies.com


Wohoo!!
I already booked my tickets! 

2004-09-29

Due to public demand, Backyard Babies has added a second show at Tavastia, Helsinki.
The second show will be on October 11. Tickets are out for sale starting tomorrow, September 30. The second show will also be recorded by Yle1 (Finnish TV).

Stay Tuned!

It?s today!!!

Backyard babies said, that they wanna film the dvd in Helsinki, because here is the best live audience in the world!!!! Woo!!

 :beer:

Audience was totally nuts.

I?ve never been as sweaty as yesterday. I have swollen cheekbones and bruises everywhere. Hmm, it was awesome to get beaten up at the front row...

But still amazing gig. Can?t wait the DVD!!

I took few pics, but they?re all crap.  :'(

Agreed! They are a very good band and that is a very good album you mentioned

The Darkness though will fade with their next album. It's not very good

Check out pics from the 1st show at Tavastia. Pics are from Juha Seila Photography (he also has great pics from Velvet Revolvers show at Helsinki http://www.juhaseila.com/Velvet%20Revolver/index.html)

"The time has finally come to release the long-awaited, and much talked about, DVD!

The title is "Jetlag - The Movie". On the same date, a live album entitled "Live Live in Paris" will be released. Release date for both items will be January 26.

On the DVD, you?ll get an inside and an outside view of what has happened during the past 15 years. Exclusive live shots, behind the scenes footage made by BYB themselves and their friends, individual interviews and a general rollercoaster ride around the world in an insane fuckin? tempo!

The live album was recorded at La Maroquinerie, Paris on May 6, 2004.

Sony BMG Records has teamed up with Swedish recordstore "Bengans" for a special pre-order project. Go to below links if you?d like to pre-order your copies!

A view of what has happened during the past 15 years?
What happened to a Helsinki show?  ???

that is awesome!! BYB live DVD! jeeej! i havent listened to them in aaages! gotta put their cd in now :D

I recently downloaded a few songs from this band I've never heard about before because of all the references I've found on this message board.

I was fuckin blown away!!!   These guys are pure Rock N' Roll!!!


So it's true: there are a lot of great bands out there, but no one bothers to promote them

check these guys out, here are the links to play a couple of their the videos

? ? ? ? ? ?

? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? video #1 "MINUS CELSIUS" http://www.jusspress.com/day.php?userid=2244&currentDate=20050404&currentTime=013942

i also have a download posted for? "song for the outcast" by Backyard Babies on my site geocities.com/diytelevision (http://geocities.com/diytelevision)

They come from my town (N?ssj?) in sweden so it's pretty cool to see that they are getting more and more famous. It started at my school 16 years from now and Dregen grew up 500 meters from my house!

that is way cool, Dregen is cool, I got an e-mail from Tamie Downe of Faster Pussycat a couple days ago, he told me Dregen recorded a song with them for the new Faster Pussycat CD !!

I don't know if the new Live CD "Live In Paris" is available in US and UK but it really rocks! The Making Enemies-songs sound great!

only available as an import, the only official U.S. releases so far are "TOTAL 13"(the best record since "appetite"), and the new one "TINNITUS", this is also amazing,, it is kind of a greatest hits, the label wanted to split up "STOCKHOLM SYNDROME" & "MAKING ENEMIES", and make one CD, the band wanted to add some of "TOTAL 13"  too, so what you get is 4 songs from each CD, PRETTY SWEET DEAL

That sounds nice. The weird thing is that Total 13 wasn't released in the US until after Making Enemies was in europe. So they had two release partys for two different CDs at the same time!!!

Backyard Babies will also tour with Social Distortion in Europe at this summer.

Just downloaded Making Enemies is Good & Stockholm Syndrome and i am loving this band, one of rocks best kept secrets! Really like Heaven 2.9 & Minus Celsius : ok: Great stuff :smoking:

can you PM me the links ???

I use the filesharing service Direct Connect dude, they did not come from a website, hence the fact no links....

You damn fuckers!!!! Downloading illegal stuff from a hard working swedish band. They are playing and touring their ass off to earn their money. Shame on you!

But I'm glad you like the music of the band from my town.

I have most of their CD's
( tinitus,? ? total 13,? ? ?safety pins and leopeard skin,? ? ?independent days),
 except those 2,
the only way in the U.S., is too order from Amazon,
 I just wish I could go to the store and by them, like the old day's
 - I am not a 20 something, raised on computers, meterosexual !!!!

and I paid to see them twice in the past year

ok, Boston, it must be hard living over there and have to pay lots of money for th CDs.  I didn't know your situation.

And i'm just a thieving twat ;)

Seriously though why would i buy albums from a band who's music i have yet to hear.

I download first and buy when i have the money, i'm an impatient fool :P

I picked up one of their CDs because of the good things I heard on these boards...They rock. Great stuff. :peace:

My friend handed my, making enemies is good,total 13 and stockholm syndrome and said take a listen and i did and have to say, unreal band and some of the songs.   

Their new album is called People Like People Like People Like Us and it?s produced by Nicke Andersson from Hellacopters.

Go listen People Like People Like People Like Us from People Like People Like People Like Us.   :hihi:

www.theparanoidsquirrel.com (http://www.theparanoidsquirrel.com) --> jukebox (first song)


Can?t wait another month!  : ok:

That song is alright. I'd have to hear more to actually judge them.. I'll check em out.

That song really sounds like the Ramones, and I miss a solo, but it could be a hit!

Agreed.

Their first album Diesel & Power comes to mind too.
Not their best song, but surely it will grow on me in time.


After three weeks ByB will start their European tour from Helsinki. Can?t wait!   :beer:

I don't like the production of Diesel & Power, the bass is sooo low. But the songs are great, I wish they played them live.

yeah, cant wait to see em! but noooo, i have  to have a fucking gig with one of my bands!!!!! damnit!
do you know when they usually start a show? maybe ill rush over to john dee after my show.... hell, its on (the day before) my birthday too! 

This time they have an opener (at least in Helsinki), so I?d guess around mid night.

How many bands do you have?  :o

HAHA..
ONLY 2...
Black Rose and then there Wreckless... Wreckless is punk, wich i joined just for playing live... not my type of band, nor persons in the band.. boring as fuck... but hey, its playing shows! hehe

the funny thing is that i met black rose in a bar when the very first night i was out with wreckless... pretty sick..

back on topic, yeah, i hope they are playing late, cuz i reaaaally wanna see them in oslo!!!

i have their latest album as well... i gotta say, i'm a huge BYB fan, i've met them before, was backstage with them in the VR tour as well.
this new album is much different from stockholm syndrome. SS is a heavy rock straight foward, no fucking around CD, it kicks you in the head... that's how heavy it sounds.
this one is a lot more rock n roll... perhaps a lot more of the latest hellacopters... not as much, but more classic rock/punk to it. i gotta say i?m hooked and i can't w8 for it to come out so i can buy a copy myself. the first track ppl like ppl, like ppl like us doesn't strike me as the strongest tho...
the cd has a lot of classic sounds to it, from gn'r to ac dc, motorhead... hanoi rocks... it's just pure class... and even tho it's not as catchy as SS, it sure is a lot of fun to listen to. : ok:

Saw them live in ?rebro yesterday at Festivalborg. It was outside and reeeeally cold, but they still performed a kick-ass show (as always).

And the best thing is that they'll be here in july too on the Where The Action Is-Tour, together with The Hellacopters, The Hives, Millencollin and Soundtrack Of Our Lives. That will be something! :D

i hope they come to the USA. i'd really like to get to see them live. my 2 favs on this new cd are "roads" and "things to do before we die".

Did they open for VR in Europe? that'd be a killer show!

i heard that they have trashlight vision opening for them. You guys that get to go to those shows are lucky.

Yep, they did. Beside in Finland of course.



I was there at the time!! Or I was driving through ?rebro to Kil.
Assh, why didn?t we take a break there!

Dregen is a KICK ASS guitar player. Anyone agree?

I do!

Dregen is one of the best ever!

And the new CD definitely rocks!

Hmm, has this CD been released worldwide?

Yep, I believe so, 1st of may.

I'm also a big fan of backyard babies, got the albums have been to shows, got band t-shirts, you name it, lol




anyway what i thought was fuckin cool was that i was lookin on guns n roses myspace page and was looking at the friends and was seeing like baz and dizzy and bumblefoot as among their best friends then i saw dregens (BB's guitarist) myspace also among their best friends, of course this prolly mean nothing but i thought it was fucking cool, and my dreams about BB being an opener for 2007 looks a little more realistic :headbanger:

I think BYB met GN'R at the Donnington festival this summer and also at the after-party at Caf? Opera in Stockholm, so I guess they know each other a bit.

I was at BYB's home-coming show in N?ssj? last week, and man it did rock! And a great after-party too...

If you don't already have it, I recommend you to pick up the re-issue of their debut album "Diesel & Power" from 1994. It has improved sound quality and sounds fresh and new.

aye - i met them at Download last year - they were really drunk and really funny guys.  I like their music, but havent heard enough to really rate them.  they opened for VR when i saw them - but i only saw a couple of songs.

went to see BYB yesterday!

saw them in 04 and that was awesome tight as hell and flawless playing!

so i was expecting the same thing now. but didnt get it. not too much passion from the band. fucked up a hellofalot times.

but i had a great time so i dont care.


some girls were beeing jerks and shoving og jumping and my GF argued with them so i started to shove them around to do the "eye for an eye" thing. and one girl actually punched me in the chest. kinda hard too.. but she split fuckin' fast! haha.. pussy :p

anyway, one guy tried to give johan a guitar pick, but he just looked at it and kinda simulated to play with it and threw it away! awesome!

dregen looked like shit! but dregen is dregen! awesome! haha...


cool show anyway, but alot of guys where dissapointed though.

friends live with danko jones, nina persson and michael monroe,

monroe is hilarious :rofl:

Backyard Babies are supporting Buckcherry on 3 UK dates in March.  www.seetickets.com (http://www.seetickets.com) - what an awesome pairing!!!

I'll be at the London show on March 20th for sure.

^woah that's like a dreamteam line-up for a show

is there anyone who has heard dregen playing rlling stones dead flowers together with lars winnerb?ck?

what a pisstake.

why dont bands hardly ever come to the midlands. its always bloody london and places which i have no idea about.

im probably going to try nottingham since thats the closest out of the 3, however im told the place if full of gun crime and is a bit dangerous for someone like me, aged 16?

Nah, that's bullshit.  Just get to the venue, watch the gig and then go home.

London is probably the safest place you can go for a gig.

just watched the swedish grammies, dregen presented an award for best female, and then they were nominated for best hard rock but In Flames won that award

That?s from Ankkarock.
I was there, in a front row! Awesome gig.

yeah, amazing, they played awesome setlist too, (watches it on youtube at least once a week :hihi:) but hey all there setlist are great  :yes: when i grow up, i'm gonna be exactly like nicke :headbanger:

Fuck Yeah, i'm gonna see them on my birthday 14th of july :headbanger:

I'll be seeing tem this month!!!! 20th March supporting Buckcherry  :beer:

I think Buckcherry are actually the support to the Backyard Babies.  Either way, I'll see ya there  :beer:

Actually, scrap that - you were right.  Buckcherry are the headline - which I find quite surprising.

look who's sporting a BYB shirt..

(http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o26/cheapjonday/duffbyb.jpg) it's duff ;)


but i have something else i was gonna say.. u know the BYB dvd.. in the end of it when they thank people.. they thank Del James, i know they're fans of gnr but i don't know anything about del james?

Matt had a BYB shirt when VR played DLT on Jay Leno...

BYB opened for Velevet Revolver in the UK either in 2004 or 2005

London 2004.


They went to see GN'R play several times on the 2006 European tour.
