+Why: because Mickey Evil, once in a small YMCA room in NYC, used to stare at a John Wayne Gacy's mug shot before going to sleep.

+Date of birth: spring, 2001.

+Genre: Elitarian Undead Rock (EUR = our homeland). Music appreciated/played by a few people which never forgot the ancient glories. Nothing new, definitely.

+Musical influences: Alice Cooper, The Stranglers, The Damned, The Lords Of The New Church, Killng Joke, Joy Division, Norwegian Black Metal, Progressive Rock, Horror Soundtracks.

+Lyrical influences. we started talking about serial killers. Now it's too fashion: we prefer to concentrate on our intimate states of mind, on cheesy horror/sci fi stories and on irony...better: self-irony.

+Line-up changes. Many. For real.

+Achieved goals: we supported The Stranglers, The Damned, The Brian James Gang, Uk Subs. Now we can accept cremation with a smile on our lips (before they turn to ashes).
