This was ´Punk Rock´ in your face rock n roll with an attitude.   Amazingly they only released one studio album yet over three decades later the Sex Pistons reformed and in 2007 played five ´SOLD OUT´ nights at Brixton Academy London, the Godfathers of British Punk Rock were back, a little older, not much wiser! With that same attitude loud and proud PUNK ROCK anthems in ya face no holds barred high energy rock n roll the youth once again had a chance to relive the chaos of the 70’s UK Punk Rock scene one last time.   Inspired with this raw passion in 2013 on a cold winter evening in darkest Holland four ‘seasoned’ rock n rollers decided to bring to life the 70´s Punk Rock n Roll legends that were the SEX PISTOLS again... for ONE NIGHT ONLY..! We locked the doors, to keep the local council out, and relived the memory of those snarling ‘in ya face’ rock n roll anthems that were the SEX PISTOLS..! MAcRoTTEN (vocals) coming from the streets of Glasgow, teaming up with friends  PaUl PiStoNS (drums), SIcK SiD (bass) and SteVe SnOt (guitar). All from the Dutch Rock scene and so the PISTONS WERE BORN..! Playing some more gigs and festivals in Holland during 2014 and into 2015 to rave reviews..! The SICK PISTONS were delivering a unique tribute to the SEX PISTOLS. The 70´s raw energy with a blasting rock sound that remains true to the spirit and the PISTOLS.   Inspired by the Brixton gigs we wanted a fuller more ballsy show, so the FAB FOUR became the FAB FOUR plus ONE when, rumor has it, the long lost brother of Malcolm McLaren (the Pistons legendary 5th member & manager) joined us on stage and STAYED: MaTt McLArEN.  The Pistons had landed with a loud bang and a scream... The SICK PISTONS full blast Punk Rock N roll in ya face. With a smile!  So dig out your safety pins and spike your hair up we are coming to a neighborhood near you... soon... ‘’We mean it Ma’am’’!
