MON 16.11.2009 - FEATURED ARTIST: BJØRN HELLFUCK (BERGEN, NORWAY):::
Gone-Surfing.com proudly presents the site's 5th featured artist: BJØRN HELLFUCK:::...
"Gone-Surfing exchanges words with the phenomenon Bjørn Hellfuck about the upcoming album, David Hasselhoff, inspiration and what the future might bring..." Bjørn Hellfuck is a norwegian musical phenomenon from Bergen, which I guess would have to be categorised as magna cum laude rock/pop. With their catchy tunes and vulgar lyrics Bjørn Hellfuck and his partners in crime band has experienced an explosive rise in popularity since the first mp3 was released on nrk Urørt. Since then their catchy, although undeniably vulgar music have been played on pre-, current- and afterparties causing a massive chainreaction spreading their musical virus Hellfuckiosis coccyxealis to the people through airborne soundwaves resulting in a bigger pandemic than the Swine Flu.
"Psychopedia" and "Walk the Shame" has been played frequently on norwegian radio, and the utterly likeable Pony the Pirate has seen their popularity shoot up like a heroine addict.. or a rocket if you find that more politically correct. Their music is full of good vibes and is likely to have you grinning happily within few seconds of audioplay. The Gone-Surfing.com crew are all big fans of Pony The Pirate, and that is why we wanted to link them up as our beloved fourth featured artist. Don't miss out on this one... pet the pony! Ladies and gentlemen.. Pony the pirate!
