About:
Harnessing their crazy sense of humor and love of all things metal, vocalist Rob "Rawrb" Kersey and guitarist Josh "The J" Key joined forces with drummer Alex "Shmalex" Dontre and bassist Matty J "Moose" to create Pyschostick, a band they've coined as humorcore. With hilarious lyrics, heavy riffs, notorious stage antics and high-energy performances, the band has caused millions of laughs around the world and hundreds of mosh pits across the US, often simultaneously, since its birth in Phoenix, AZ in 2000.
Almost 100 percent do-it-yourself, Psychostick never strays from its signature sound, a combination of heavy music that Chimaira, Machine Head, and
Hatebreed would be proud of, and wit and humor that would make
Tenacious D and
Weird Al Yankovic holler with laughter.
With three full-length albums behind them - "We Couldn't Think of a Title," "Sandwich," and their holiday album, "The Flesh Eating Rollerskate Holiday Joyride" - the band released their latest record, "Space Vampires vs. Zombie Dinosaurs in 3D," in 2011, following it up with a tour with
Mushroomhead to add to their total count of 21 nationwide tours that have hit 47 states.
After a successful 2013 that saw these touring ninja warriors hit the road for multiple shows on the 'Our Tour Can Beat Up Your Tour', 'Blow Your Fingers Off' summer tour, their late summer dates with American Head Charge plus appearances at summer fests that included Rockapalooza, A2 Fest, Breast Fest Biker Bash, and Dirtfest. The band finally took a break in last months of the year and held a successful crowd funding campaign (thank you video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSeQHqMCfJI), where they are now currently in studio recording their follow up to 2011′s 'Space Vampires vs. Zombie Dinosaurs'.
