psychobilly
A cross between Punk and Rockabilly. Started by The Meteors in 1980 they set the template blending the energy of punk with the rhythms of the neo-Rockabilly song, whilst singing about dark subjects such as horror, murder, lurid sexuality and a desire to be outside of society.
The movement was famous for its violent dancing – known as wrecking – exaggerated quiffs, and tattoos.
The scene remains active, with bands like Horrorpops and Tiger Army achieving commercial success.
There are around 50 items in our catalogue, including Meteors’ Fire, Fire (featured above).
