III

Have you heard of them? This two guitar, one drummer, instrumental band is insane. The Champs are heirs to a long lineage beginning with Thin Lizzy and ending on the divergent ground of Carcass, Pussy Galore and Kraftwerk. Hailing from San Francisco, the sole aim of the 'Kings of the Insanity Sound' is to set the audience soaring high on the wings of sorrow. Featuring former members of The Nation of Ulysses, Hydrox, the Young Ginns, Taildragger, and The Event. III, The Champs debut, has been praised by critics ranging from Heartattack to Metal Maniacs to Alternative Press. Chris Pontius from Big Brother stated it the best,'The Champs play adventure music, and everyone likes them.' (frenetic records)
