Bio:
CITY FIXX was put together during 1987 in Baltimore, MD, with the following line-up: Kevin Bern-lead vocalist, Anthony Carrera-Bass, Victor Carrera-Guitar, Michael "Skinz" Skinsacos-Guitar, and Eric Anderson-Drums.With a lot of supporting-slots to bands such as GREAT WHITE, TORA TORA, FEMME FATALE, HEAVEN & CHILD’S PLAY, and a massive radio support, CITY FIXX became soon a Rock favorite by many Hard-Rock fans in the Maryland and Pennsylvania area.Coming from Rockville, Maryland, CITY FIXX played Baltimore and also L.A. clubs in the ’88-’91 years, with also various studio-recordings to their credit, but without having the chance to sign a proper record-deal.Some 30 years later the band will have their debut-CD called “Fire your Guns” out, in the early 2022, on the usual 500 copies limited-edition.Top sleazy/street Hard-Rock from Baltimore, MD, with a style close to Faster Pussycat, L.A. Guns, Tora Tora and early Guns n Roses.
Album:
As part of the treasurable Steelheart Records ‘Lost US Jewels’ series, here’s all recordings from CITY FIXX.As the Los Angeles Hair Metal scene was exploding in ’88, with bands like Guns ‘N Roses, Faster Pussycat, L.A. Guns and Warrant all taking a piece of the (cherry) pie, over in the aptly named Rockville, Maryland, were CITY FIXX, a bunch of rock and roll ragamuffins that wanted their own slice of the pie.Sounding like a delicious blend of early Guns ‘N Roses, Faster Pussycat with a hint of Poison, the likes of ‘Shatterbone City’, ‘Blood’ and ‘Last Romance’ are irrefutable proof of this band’s prowess.Producer Kim Fowley (Runaways, Alice Cooper) firmly believed that CITY FIXX was better than most L.A. bands around at the time, and produced some of the 20 (!) tracks included into this ”The Lost US Jewels Vol 12 ; CITY FIXX – Fire Your Guns”, compiling the band’s various studio recordings that reached major labels.CITY FIXX’s Eighties US sleazy hard rock definitely has ‘something’, weird they didn’t get the chance to release an album back in the day.Limited to 500 CD’s, almost sold out. Crank it up loud! (contributors get the album today)
