Shotgun Messiah - Heartbreak Blvd


Shotgun Messiah were a glam metal band originally from Sweden. The band originally went under the name "Kingpin" while in Sweden, recording the album Welcome To Bop City; the line-up featured Zinny J. Zan (vocals), Tim Skold (going by "Tim Tim") (bass), Harry K. Cody (guitar) and Pekka "Stixx" Ollinen (drums). This would become the original line-up of Shotgun Messiah.
The band plays a style of glam metal typical of early 1980s American bands such as Mötley Crüe and Ratt.



Todays tune "Heartbreak Blvd" is taken from their second album "Second Coming", released in 1991. The drums on 'Second Coming' is a mix between programmed and trigged drums.
