Roy & the dmc Staehli Bros Berne Roy & the Devil’s Motorcycle - Raw, green, warped, outsider joy The Stähli bros. picked up guitars as freshly-psyched country teens looking to set their - and our - little worlds on fire. Inspired by old, dusty blues records, gospel, primitive garage, Spacemen 3, 13th Floor Elevators, the Velvets, Souled American, Gibson bros., they cut their own path with a fierce experimentalism more akin to Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Red Krayola and Sun Ra. After a few singles on the super-underground RECORD JUNKIE label, they’ve since unleashed 4 self-made-to-the-bone albums on the Swiss-primitive VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS, including the raging punk-blues cult-classic FORGOTTEN MILLION SELLERS (1998), the scorched-earth soundtrack BECAUSE OF WOMEN (2006), and the psychedelic knife-cut crystalline transmission TELL IT TO THE PEOPLE (2012). Not to ignore handfuls of handcrafted singles and the deceptively (relatively) accessible 10 inch BLACK SWAN AT CHRISTMAS (2005). By 2012 they’d shared European stages with Acid Mothers Temple, Sonic Boom/Spectrum, Black Lips, Disappears, Strange Boys, Psychic TV, Martin Rev (SUICIDE) and, after J Spaceman’s ears were tweaked by the warped power, they joined Spiritualized on a 3-week European tour. 2013 studio efforts concentrated on the soundtrack to Adrian Winkler's biopic on the original Swiss Hells' angel, Martin “Tino” Schippert - TINO: FROZEN ANGEL (2014), with their tri-sibling sub-conscious atmospherics sound-painting Tino’s escalating and unwinding decline. And so…..the future: Roys have been recording an album with Doggen from Spiritualized and 2015 shall be the year of its birth.
