When Frontkick were founded in Berlin by newly arrived Mallorcians Marti Neurotic and Victor Bisonte, nobody could have expected the direction the band was to take in the years to come. Over years of constant touring, line-up changes and hard work, the sound of Frontkick evolved from the raw, hard-hitting Streetpunk of the early days to a far more melodic and sophisticated style of their own. New influences and improving musicianship found their way into the songs without sacrificing the most important characteristics of every Frontkick anthem: great songwriting, honesty and an energetic performance! The band released two full length albums and several singles over the years, all the while maintaining a busy touring schedule that took them to countries all over Europe. New friends were made, thousands of miles were travelled and the list of both old favourites and up and coming bands sharing the stage with Frontkick grew longer and longer. Marti Neurotic, charismatic lead singer and guitar player, has been with the band from the very start. The other members of the current Frontkick line up are guitar player Martin B., bass player Stephan 103., and the most recent addition on the drums - Vovka M. Between them, they share the experience of countless shows and weeks of touring, always giving a 100% no matter what stage they are playing on. Anyone who has seen the boys perform one of their kick-ass live shows lately will have no doubt that this is the strongest incarnation of Frontkick ever!

The release of “The Cause of the Rebel” marks the next step in the history of FRONTKICK.

-PRESS INFO:

Their third full-length LP is the latest document of continuing musical development, packed to the rafters with 14 brand new songs that once again show FRONTKICK on top of their game. The experiences of years of touring, improving musicianship, and new personal and musical influences have brought about a constant evolution from the raw, hard-hitting Streetpunk of the early days to the far more melodic and sophisticated style that defines the sound of FRONTKICK in 2007.

Along the way, FRONTKICK have managed to maintain the honest energy that has been the heart and soul of every FRONTKICK show since the very beginning. Top this off with great songwriting, a clever hand for the right melodies and hooklines and a tight live performance by a band that actually has a meaningful message to convey and the result is what crowds all over Europe have come to appreciate. The sound of FRONTKICK has grown into something distinctly of their own, owing as much to musical influences from both sides of the Atlantic as to the unique atmosphere in their hometown Berlin and the truly international cast of band members. “The Cause of the Rebel” is all about capturing this, the essence of what FRONTKICK are all about.
