Emerging in 1996 with their Grammy Award-winning debut album, Supershitty To The Max, The Hellacopters are regarded as Swedish rock royalty alongside their good mates The Hives.

Formed in 1994 by Nicke Andersson (vocals and guitar), Andreas “Dregen” Svensson (guitar), Kenny Kakansson (bass) and Robert Eriksson (drums), the band had a slew of hit albums and singles before going their separate ways in 2007.

Thankfully for fans, The Hellacopters reformed in 2016 and have been kicking ass ever since, with their Aussie return alongside Gluecifer shaping up as one of the tours of 2027.

Catch The Hellacopters with support from Gluecifer at Ed Castle on Saturday 20 March. Ticketing information is available via hardlinemedia.net.
