SONG REVIEW- VELVET INSANE FT DREGEN AND NICKE ANDERSSON-BACKSTREET LIBERACE


Swedish glam rockers' Velvet Insane has released a new single "Backstreet Liberace", taken from the upcoming album Rock 'N' Roll Glitter Suit. This new track sees the Scandinavian Three-piece teaming up with Dregen and Nicke Andersson (The Hellacopters, Lucifer etc)

"Backstreet Liberace" is a fun throwback to the '70s with sweet pop harmonies, accompanied by boogie riffs and scintillating piano keys. The feelgood vibes will lead fans humming the chorus in unison with the affable frontmen

The band comments:
"We feel very proud about this song and that it breathes and swaggers like
it was made in London in 1973, but with the modern sound of today.

Smooth pop harmonies pumped up by heavy drums and barbed wire guitars, and with a chorus that hits you right where it hurts. On top of it all, we got Dregen and Nicke Andersson from The Hellacopters to jump in the back seat, giving us a helping hand in our purpose to keep rock ‘n’ roll alive. It can't get any better than that!"

The track was written by Sulo Karlsson of The Diamond Dogs, who also produced and wrote the tracks with Velvet Insane

The eleven-track long album manifests Velvet Insane as a rock act to count
on for years to come. “Rock ’n’ Roll Glitter Suit” is released via Wild
Kingdom on July 16.
