The Meteors at The Brickyard, Carlisle

The Meteorsstarted in 1980 as a reaction against the soft rockabilly that was popular at that time and they have now evolved to become the acknowledged “Kings of Psychobilly”.

Their audience has continually expanded, and includes not just psychobillies, but everybody from rockabillies and punks, to bikers, and most alternatives. They are the original creators of Psychobilly Music, and although they have spawned hundreds of imitations, The Meteors are proud to be the only pure Psychobilly band ever. Their songs are inspired by their personal experiences and interests; Horror, Perversion, and Death in general.

They have now made no less than 30 official albums, and countless singles, not to mention dozens of compilations and re-issues. Their live show is wild and addictive, and has been seen in just about every country in the world, including Japan, several tours of America, and every major city in Europe and Scandinavia.
