Fun Fact: In 2018 there was still one crucial element missing for a true metal band: a drummer. That held Psych not deterred from appearing on the stages of Graz’s trendy bars. A self-constructed, headbanging robot named Elmar took over the job until late 2019, when the band acquired a flesh-and-blood drummer.
Biography:
In the beginning was the big bang. Then nothing worth mentioning happened for several million years, until 2008 from Andy die Band Psych Founded. Originally planned as an industrial group, a bagpipe player later joined them, turning the concept on its head. Another million years followed with line-up changes and a few gigs, the bagpiper left the band once more, Andy quickly learned to play the bagpipes and replaced it, etc. In 2018 the troupe was not quite complete once more, but with a little technical support it was still able to perform on stage. The pandemic break was used for homemade videos and new songs. In 2022 it was finally possible to play live once more without a guilty conscience. Just in time, the band celebrated their 5th birthday in late summer. Psych found and planted behind the drums. Since then, one event has followed the next…
