Biografía

  • Twisted Sister (formed in 1972) is an American heavy metal group, known for their tumultuous career trajectory and elaborate theatrics, hailing from Long Island City, New York, U.S.

    Founded by Jay Jay French in 1972, it wasn’t until the 1976 incarnation of Twisted Sister – featuring guitarist Eddie “Fingers” Ojeda, bassist Kenneth Harrison Neil, drummer Kevin John, and vocalist Dee Snider – that the band started making waves in the industry. Following a series of record-breaking live shows, in May 1978 Twisted Sister recorded a prodigious amount of new material, which wouldn’t surface until “Club Daze” in 1999. Sensing the death of glam rock and with the arrival of ex-Dictators bass player Mark Mendoza, the band cemented their hard rock and heavy metal appeal in this period.

    In 1980 Twisted Sister released their debut single “I’ll Never Grow Up Now” on their own Twisted Sister Records. The same year the subsequent single “Bad Boy of Rock’n’Roll” appeared after which the band signed with the independent label Secret Records. Following the release of their debut EP “Ruff Cuts”, the band headed to England to work on their debut full length. “Under the Blade” arrived in 1982 earning a devoted, underground following despite the inexperience and mediocrity of producer Pete Way. Twisted Sister’s subsequent release, the polished “You Can’t Stop Rock ’n’ Roll” was issued in 1983, the lead and title track of which became the band’s first charting single.

    Infused with pop sensibilities and pockets of commercial appeal, the band’s third full-length “Stay Hungry” took the charts by storm in 1984. Album sales rocketed to multi-platinum certification aided by the knock-out hits “We’re Not Gonna Take It” and “I Wanna Rock”, and led Snider et al. to become household names in the U.S. However, the gimmicky, tongue-in-cheek nature of the record led the label, radio, and MTV to over-represent Twisted Sister in the media and the band struggled to retain their original audience. 1985’s “Come Out and Play” marked this disparity between their roots in hard rock and more recent pop appeal.

    By this point audience numbers at shows began to dwindle and rumours were rife indicating a strife between Snider and French. Twisted Sister marched on until sales for their fifth full-length “Love Is for Suckers” proved particularly uninspiring and members went their separate ways. Snider appeared in the late ‘90s as a cross-appeal radio DJ, and also contributed to film production, notably his writing and starring in the 1998 horror film “Strangeland”.

    The classic “Stay Hungry” Twisted Sister lineup returned in November 2001 alongside Anthrax, Overkill, Sebastian Bach, and Ace Frehley at a tribute to service men and women following the September 11, 2011 attacks. Popularity for the band grew exponentially in this time and the band embarked on a huge worldwide tour. In March 2004 the band re-recorded their “Stay Hungry” album entitled “Still Hungry” complete with seven bonus tracks, followed by the Christmas album “A Twisted Christmas” in October 2006.

  • Who wouldn't love watching Dee Snider roam the stage , decked out in Makeup, shoulder pads and a mop of blonde hair flowing in every direction.Seeing Twister Sister is quite a unique and enjoyable experience. It's very fun to see some or all of the band members wearing makeup, fishnet sheer tops, chains, leather and everything in between.

    Twister Sister is always very energetic and engages the crowd quite well, often calling for fist pumps, getting them jumping up and down, working them into a frenzy and demanding total allegiance and participation. Dee Sniders strong vocals, along with his hilarious on stage banter makes Twister Sister well worth the price of admission. "I Wanna Rock", "We're not Gonna Take It" are some of the powerful gems I was witness too.

    One of the things i love most about Twister Sister is their no-nonsense approach to all out, to the wall approach. The sets are ripping and full of non stop passion and energy from the start. Musically, the band is also very solid, with great riffing, an excellent guitar tone and red hot soloing. Take "The Kids Are Back" as a perfect example.

    Twister Sister is one of the best concert experience one can partake in, bringing them nothing but joy and admiration for a band that keeps it real, raw and straight to the point. Having fun and playing butt kicking music.

  • There are very few frontmen who command attention quite as successfully as Dee Dee Snider. Dressed in incredible stage outfit, a face full of makeup and swaying blonde hair, it is not exactly what you imagine a lead singer of a metal core band to look like yet it totally works as his eccentric personality and commanding appearance means he is able to handle the whole audience as one entity with complete ease.

    He has such twisted aggression when addressing the crowd and can enthuse them to jump along to the likes of 'The Kids Are Back' with a sheer flick of his guitar and a crude insult thrown in their direction. The more they are baited, the more the audience throws themselves into the music and create mosh pits at the band's feet during 'You Can't Stop Rock 'n' Roll'. The whole venue is awash of sweat and adrenaline before the band wrap up the evening with a momentous extended 'Burn In Hell' really demonstrating the instrumental prowess before a punchy 'I Wanna Rock' once again throws the audience into a sense of mayhem, just the way Twisted Sister like it.

  • The show was amazing. You would think Dee Snider is still 20 years old when he jumps around on the stage. They played a really long shot being that it's the last time they're going to play in the US
