If you look for a single word to describe this band, it must be “unusual”.

Originally created in 2011, this 4-piece alternative rock band based in Ireland has been acquiring its own style, influenced by many grunge, riot grrrl, industrial rock and good ol' Rock and Roll formations.

Patricia Ayllon, original from Madrid, was the former bass player of Poppies' Infusion, a Riot Grrrl band from Colmenar Viejo. Her influences going from the Seattle Sound all the way to Psychobilly, through goth, alternative and punk bring a fresh, bold and psychedelic approach to Johnny Horne's sound.

Lukas is Lithuanian by nationality. He started playing drums in secondary school in Public Secret and carried on with the indie sounds the band emitted, before joining a hard rock band React. Finally, his punk roots and a long lasting itch for energetic and expressive performance have been satisfied with his arrival at Johnny Horne.

The frontman, German Garcia started playing guitar in a punk rock band back in Benidorm, Spain, when he was just 14 years old. After that, he opened up to a wider range of styles, going through metal, industrial, goth and finally grunge.

On the 19th of April 2013, Garry Lynch joined Johnny Horne, bringing with him his solid guitar sound.

Fuzz distortions, heavy bass lines, badass drums and powerful, direct lyrics: That’s all in all what Johnny Horne's about.

Another review from Loud-Stuff.com added - 'Maybe the ultimate compliment you can pay to this album is that you could listen to it between Nirvana's In Utero and Alice in Chains Dirt and it's every bit as good'. 
'Mr. Bureaucracy' was chosen to be the first single with it's fast pulsing riffs and melodic vocal refrains. The band also shot a music video for 'Mr. Bureaucracy' in 2012 which was nominated for best song at the Berlin Music Video Awards, Dublin International short film and music awards the Portobello Film Festival London in 2013.

Formed in 2012, the Four Skulls are a hard rock band based in eastern Kentucky in the USA whose music has been described by some as “when Alice In Chains meets Rush”.  Their love for lush vocal arrangements, heavy rock, and time signature changes are somewhat indicative of their style.  The band prides themselves on bringing everything they have to deliver a powerful show with a driving rhythm section, soaring guitar work, and over-the-top vocals.  The combined gigging experience of the members will ensure they ensnare each and every audience member into their own brand of the hard rock experience.

The recently released Four Skulls debut concept album "World Of Hurt" is a story of a young man's journey through the hell of warfare.  From the perils of leaving home, to being thrust into all-out war thousands of miles away in a foreign land, to having his mind forever changed from all he has witnessed and endured.  Each song is a chapter in this excursion, and takes you inside his psyche from innocence, to brutality, to paranoia.

Mick Bryan - Guitar & Backing Vocals
 
Tony Pack - Drums & Percussion
 
Chip McGlone - Bass

REVIEW

Talented singer/songwriter multi instrumentalist. Now if you like your music to be different and very unique then this is for you, with a huge array of instruments & sound machines there is no stopping the flow of pure genius. almost psychedelic in nature with heavy influences from old school rock bands imagine crossing T-Rex, The Beatles, The Smashing Pumpkins, with Pink Floyd &  Jefferson Airplane then to top it all with some Nirvana. Which ever way you look at it there’s something for everyone and this guy will defiantly keep your senses entertained. Vocally fantastic, Lyrically very good and the music pure talented uniqueness.


People still ask me what or who is Trendlaser?  Is he you?  No, he isn't me. I'd never say the stuff he does. And even though we've been writing songs together from the beginning, I don't know much about him, except that some of his comments are a bit... Anyway, they're not malicious.  Now, he claims he was conceived in a test tube in some clandestine government lab and was raised in a bio-pod from which he escaped when he was seventeen. Doubt it, but, who the hell knows. The guy is incredibly honest about everything else. Love him/hate him--he doesn't care--but I do! I want us to sell a zillion records.--Danny Bulla 
Note: Trendlaser got locked out of his Facebook account 'til he produces a govt. ID w/pic and personal info.  He has refused. (I told him, "why don't you just show them your Driver's License and be done with it.  They just want to verify your real name." He replied, "real name? You mean 'DNAspecimen 5763-4D'?"
 Winds up in LA with a suitcase and a few bucks. Had some more life experiences, took acting lessons, fell in and out of love a couple times. Pulled his strat from under the bed where it had been untouched for about a year. Started writing songs, the best he'd ever done (in content and emotion),  and voila! TRENDLASER  LIVES! (Released Oblivion Jan. 2015.  Then, Sliding,  May 2015.  Both are available on amazon.com (Sliding available as a CD), itunes, xbox, google play, spotify, the new Apple stream and most online music stores.  Or get it at https://trendlaser.bandcamp.com   Be bold--get TRENDLASER and don't be surprised if it becomes your favorite set of tunes in your collection.-Danny Bulla cowriter w/Trendlaser of all Trendlaser songs.
