There is a language crisis gripping this nation. We are here to set things right. And maybe get laid. Mostly to piss off eunuchs.
Band/artist history
While many music credits will cite the year 2000 as the birthplace of nu-metal and emotional rock, most have failed to include The Next Syphillis on the list of blessings from the early 21st century, along with other current chart-toppers of the music world. The humble beginnings of the band that was to become The Next Syphillis date back to the early 90s when vocalist Dirk Pepper and guitarist Rodney Knight were school chums in Manchester, England. The boisterous youths found they could only be sedated by the stylings of David Lee Roth. Fate found the boys relocating to the States, settling down in the quiet town of Niagara Falls, NY. Pepper and Knight started Panama-monium, arguably one of the country's finest David Lee Roth cover bands, but failed to make a name for themselves in the bar scene. However, they did catch the attention of guitarist James van der Saint and drummer Timmy di Silva, then in struggling alt-rock group, Pit Maniacs. The four Diamond Dave-devotees decided to join forces to merge rock, pop, ska, funk and thrash metal into a unique sound. In their short time together, The Next Syphillis has managed to develop quite the cult following among the Western New York music scene. Fans have been known to trade bootlegs of the band's rehearsals. Accolades have been pouring over the group's original style, and the recent addition of multi-instrumentalist/eye candy Diane McKay ensures that their sound will continue to expand. The Syph, as their fans like to refer to them, have shared the bill with such bands as Veil, Superpimp, The Rah Bras, and Nationale Blue. They hope to one day open up for Foghat.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We tried playing dead, using techniques learned from the hilarious movie, "Weekend at Bernie's" and its lesser sequel, "Weekend at Bernie's II." It didn't work out very well for us.
