BIOGRAPHY
In 1999 Shake Appeal broke up and so
Guitarist Henrik and Bass player Simon joined forces with new singer
Jeppe Escobar and drummer Slambert (aka Slamboy). The music changed
to a more Rock’n’Roll inspired
punk rock. Not as fast and furious as Shake Appeal but more swinging
in a Saints, Fun Things, Infections
kinda way...only faster! One of the first gigs was at the Adios Moshable
Festival in Copenhagen where we
opened day 2 at Loppen. This concert was recorded by the Danish National
Radio and a couple of months
later the whole gig was broadcasted in the radio. Wow.
After doing a lot of support jobs the band decided to do some recordings
for record purposes. In January 2000 they recorded the first demo:
9 songs on an analogue 4-track tape recorder to ensure the right ’77
feel. The tape was put on CDR and sent around. Tony Slug reviewed
it in Hit List magazine: "…somebody release this!"
– and somebody did! High School Reject from Holland decided
to release a 10" and it turned into the 6-track lo-fi punk rock
blast Scene of the Crime.

The record got great reviews almost everywhere and even the most jaded
man in punk rock Tim Warren was impressed: “GOD DAMN does this
record smokeass! Ex-Shake Appeal members blastin out 6 extremely hot
& raw & loud punkers…If you dug the Dirtys alb you are
gonna dig this. “ The following year the band toured around
Europe, both on their own and one tour with Dutch punk rock out-fit
the Hot Pockets. In Kassel they met Gregor and a deal for a full length
album was made right after the show there. In 2001 their first album
“Abrance!” (Colombian for “Get outta my way!”)
was released on Sounds of Subterrania and more touring and more good
reviews followed. During the late fall of 2002 Sounds of Subterrania
put out the second album “Why Change Your Moves?” More
of the same balls out high-speed punk rock and a cover of AC/DC’s
“Riff Raff”. Slambert and Simon decided to leave the band
in 2003 but that hasn’t changed much. Henrik and Jeppe quickly
found a new bass player and drummer and they haven’t looked
back. More new songs, more kicking ass and more touring is coming
up. Gigs in Sweden and Germany have been played and others are on
the way. In 2004 The Neckties also got their name on a record in the
States. The Compilation CD ”Greaseball Melodrama”. Compiled
by none other than New Bomb Turks singer Eric Davidson and put out
by Gearhead. The Neckties also managed to get their name on a compilation
so far away as Japan and later this year the japanish people should
be feeded with danish dynamite rock by help from rock´n´roll
gods and the danish goverment. Since the end of the last tour The
Neckties have spend alot of time in the rehearsingroom, making new
material for the third baby. In the beginning 2005 The Columbian Neckties
finally finished their third album. The result is very soon to be
in public, and The Neckties will once again present the record on
a tour to Germany and it´s neighbours with the energy and smile
that characterize them. Like Alien Snatch Records wrote on their website.
“Yesterday the COLUMBIAN NECKTIES played and I can say that
they are one of most rockin´ bands I ever saw on stage. I´m
happy, cause now I can laugh about all those dozens of tough guy cock-rock
Electric Gluein´HellaBabySucker bands which are around since
some years, I never cared about them too much. Loved the UPPER CRUST
- that´s all! The ´Neckties are now. One not-of-this-earth
guitar player, fast tunes, the smile, the inperfection and a good
soundman. Thank you guys
