Crazy Lixx

In February 2025, the Swedish hair metal outfit is set to release their highly anticipated album Thrill of the Bite, which promises to elevate their rock music to new heights. Following the success of their previous album Street Lethal (2021), this new record is packed with powerful anthems, memorable riffs and melodies, electrifying guitar solos, and the larger-than-life sing-along energy that fans have come to expect from the band, delivering what is already shaping up to be one of the bands strongest works in their 20+ year career. Thrill of the Bite features tracks that highlight Crazy Lixx’s ability to balance their nostalgic, sleaze-metal roots with their love for the 80s and early 90s, drawing inspiration from the flamboyant heavy metal and movies of that era alike. The band has teased a few tracks, suggesting a turn to a heavier, riff-driven style while maintaining their signature melodic choruses and glam-influenced attitude.

Crazy Lixx are another Swedish sleaze revivalist group, and sound exactly like you would expect them to. Take a base of Skid Row, add some Mötley Crüe attitude, a pinch of Europe’s pop-sheen and Def Leppard’s penchant for an anthemic chorus, package it in a shiny modern production job, then give it a ridiculous name and silly hairdo. The album starts as it means to go on with “Hell Raising Women:” simple, catchy hooks matching simple, catchy lyrics – nothing new to hear, but fun all the same. They wisely get the only ballad on the album, “Outlaw,” out of the way early, and it’s not all that bad, even picking up the pace towards the end (take note, Midnight Sin). Other highlights include the well-written Crüe/Leppard hybrid “All Looks, No Hooks,” “I Missed the Mark” with its The Darkness-esque verse riff and cheesetacular Edguy-ish chorus, and inevitable crowd pleaser “Girls of the 80’s.” As you can tell from the song titles, there is absolutely zero depth to this record, but that’s exactly the point.

Frontiers Music Srl is thrilled to announce the upcoming release of Crazy Lixx's new studio album, “Ruff Justice” on April 21, 2017. The new record celebrates Crazy Lixx’s fifteenth anniversary as a band and offers ten hair / sleaze / 80's metal gems that harken back to the height of the hard rock era. The new songs draw inspiration from not only music, but also from 1980’s horror and action flicks and stand as a glowing reminder that pretty much everything was better in the 80’s. With its big choruses, memorable hooks and riffs, impressive guitar solos, and a massive production by Danny Rexon and Chris Laney, this album is sure to resonate with old fans and new listeners alike. “We’ve tried the same ‘all killers-no fillers’ approach that we’ve gone for on our previous albums, but this time, more than ever, I think we’ve come close to that vision,“ says lead singer and producer Danny Rexon.

Swedish hard rockers Crazy Lixx's new album, "Street Lethal" is chock full of huge choruses, memorable hooks and riffs, and wailing, emotive guitar solos, fans of the band will be thrilled and delighted by what is on offer here. Massive production comes courtesy of Danny Rexon, who, over the past couple of years, has really turned into a master craftsman in the studio. WithTobias Lindell (H.E.A.T, Europe, Hardcore Superstar etc.) handling the mix, this album is sure to resonate with old fans and new listeners alike.

"Two Shots at Glory" serves as a commemoration of Crazy Lixx's illustrious 20+ year career, featuring reimagined renditions of their iconic choruses, unforgettable hooks, and electrifying guitar solos, all while introducing some exciting new surprises. Each song is accompanied by a video, part of the ‘Unofficial Sound Tracks’ “UST”. “For almost a year now I’ve been doing these UST (as opposed to the widely known term OST), where I reimagine our music as the soundtrack to 1980s and 1990s movies. This era profoundly influenced me as a musician, music producer, and videographer". These UST videos draw inspiration from a wide range of films, from blockbuster hits of the 90s to lesser-known 80s B-movies.
