The Balls


“EASILY ONE OF THE BEST BANDS TO EMERGE FROM AUSTRALIA IN THE LAST 20 YEARS, THE BALLS ARE FUCKING BRILLIANT”

The Balls emerged from the dark corners of Melbourne, Australia. Their sound is a sleazy punk, stoner rock, and the gigs are a booze-fuelled blast to the last man standing.
Formed in 2011,The Balls style was a result of the patient songwriting process, allowing the bands style to emerge before performing to a live audience. The end result is their punchy assault of sleazy punk, stoner rock.
One fan stated, “If Red Fang and Clutch got addicted to meth and formed a band they would sound like The Balls”.
The Balls wrote their second CD using the same hermetic, substance-abusing methodology as Brett Easton Ellies did for American Pyscho. They went into the wilderness, in the middle of summer, surrounded by bushfires, snakes and 40°C heat, which adds a touch of the Australian outback to the classic stoner sound. Now, the CD and the band are just as hot, as the Australian summer.
“The Balls flourish in a live setting. They are a band that chew up stages. A frenetic, furious musical proposition like few others. One of the tightest live acts Melbourne has to offer.” – Joseph Earp, Beat Magazine

„The Balls“ stiegen aus den dunklen Ecken Melbournes empor. Ihr Sound, kreiert durch eine wilde Mischung aus deftigem Punk und Stoner Rock, explodiert während der Shows regelmäßig derart heftig, dass es selbst den letzten hartgesottenen Rocker vom Hocker haut.
Zitat: „The Balls blühen in ihrer Live Show auf! Ein frenetisch, furioses und energiegeladenes Erlebnis, von denen es nur wenige gibt. Einer der geradlinigsten Acts, die Melbourne derzeit anbieten kann.“ – Joseph Earp, Beat Magazine
