Leftover Bullets
The Hard Rockers from Thessaloniki have been presenting to us their proposal carrying with them dirt, vagrancy and wildness since the summer of '13. Inspired by the music and the attitude of the hard n heavy decade 85-95 they shoot with their “Leftover Bullets” to kill in our decade.
THE NAME
The 5 member band came together when a wave of young people started leaving Greece. According to them “We were looking at our friends leaving one after another and us left behind. But we are bullets..”
THE MUSIC
An electrified field stepping on Hard Rock, close to Heavy whilst playing with Punk played with Plug and Play leaving out all sound effects.
THE LYRICS
Clearly angry with everything going on but not avoiding to dig deep in the feelings with a hint of philosophy.
THE HISTORY
During the summer of '15, they recorded their very first song “80’s Child” together with a lyric video which came to knowledge of Miltos Karatzas and his company FINAL TOUCH – THE LABEL. This lead to a 2 year contract. The song “80’s Child” was released on May'16, through the company as the first single of their debut album “Virtue & Vice” which released on November 30 together with the second single “While I’m on the round” with a video clip. "Might be miles way" was another song from the album that became their second video clip wich was released in January '17 and the third and fourth ones were published the same year under the titles "Virgin Queen" and "Feeding the Flame". The summer of '18 found the band in the studio preparing their second album, while they are in search of a new label. In December '18, "Confused" was released as the first video clip of their upcoming album. Through their 5 years of existence they count numerous appearances mostly in Thessaloniki, Athens, some participations in festivals and exclusive gigs. Besides the Bass player who was added to the band on March 2016, the last addition was the rythm guitarist who joined in on summer of '18. All the rest members have been together since the very beginning – exception is the drummer who replaced the first one before the band took its final form.
