About:

Harnessing their crazy sense of humor and love of all things metal, vocalist Rob "Rawrb" Kersey and guitarist Josh "The J" Key joined forces with drummer Alex "Shmalex" Dontre and bassist Matty J "Moose" to create Pyschostick, a band they've coined as humorcore. With hilarious lyrics, heavy riffs, notorious stage antics and high-energy performances, the band has caused millions of laughs around the world and hundreds of mosh pits across the US of A, often simultaneously, since its birth in Phoenix, AZ in 2000.

Now residing in Chicago, IL, with four full-length albums behind them ' "We Couldn't Think of a Title" (2006), their holiday album "The Flesh Eating Rollerskate Holiday Joyride" (2007), "Sandwich" (2009), and "Space Vampires vs. Zombie Dinosaurs in 3D" (2011), the almost 100 percent do-it-yourself laugh factory, Psychostick returns with their signature sound (Chimaira, Machine Head and Hatebreed sexing Tenacious D and Weird Al Yankovic) to showcase their latest offering, the crowd funded album 'IV: Revenge of The Vengeance' (fan thank you video) due out on November 4, 2014. Featuring a hilarious track listing that includes previously released singles the beard anthem 'Obey The Beard' and popular 'Dog Like Socks' plus new tracks such as 'Quack Kills', 'So. Heavy', 'Blue Screen', and a tribute to the 21st century's most beloved action super hero 'Bruce Campbell'. Psychostick are crazy to share with fans many more comedy sing-a-longs on the road and more!

"In a genre with a lot of anger, aggression and seriousness, every once in a while some levity is good. That's where Psychostick come in. Their fourth albumIV: Revenge Of The Vengeance is musically solid and lyrically amusing." - Heavy Metal - About.com

"humorcore band Psychostick is like the Jerry Seinfeld of metal. On its fourth full-length release, IV: Revenge of The Vengeance, the band's sound invokes similarities too oddball artists such as Mr. Bungle, GWAR, Primus, Green Jello, Scatterbrain and Austrian Death Machine, to name a few. On its 21 ridiculous tracks (including various short skits between songs), the band explores its brand of observational comedy mixed with brutal breakdowns. The band exceeds expectations by parodying popular culture, relationships and binge drinking." - Bravewords

"Psychostick pulls the pin from a hand grenade and shoves it down the gullet of comedy. When it explodes, anyone within earshot finds themselves covered in the entrails of hilarity! These guys are off-the-chart insane. Imagine if the cast of "Jackass" formed a metal band with Andy Samberg, Sam Kinison, and Seth Rogen and then they threw a house party that made "Project X" look like amateur hour by comparison. Yeah, now you're getting it!" - Axs

"I do like when bands like Pyschostick inject humour into songs and REVENGE OF THE VENGEANCE is pretty damn funny...The first single 'Obey The Beard' is magnificent and this is coming from a clean-shaven dude. It made me want to grow one. Comedy Metal fans can listen for a couple of inside Metal jokes (Captain Stupid!) and a cameo by 'snaky'. The production is immaculate and as always these guys are as heavy as hell. Weird Al on crack. I wanted to use that phrase and I couldn't even think how to work it into this review so I just dumped it here at the end. Humour is so subjective but I know what I like and I really like IV: REVENGE OF THE VENGEANCE." - Metal Rules

"IV: Revenge of the Vengeance isn't just a Psychostick album, it's a Psychostick experience. They really went all out on this album. Not all of it makes sense and some of it may be a little over the top, but that's what makes this band so great- they aren't afraid to push the envelope of ridiculousness. In fact, they bask in it. Get ready, world. Get ready for the revenge of the vengeance and one of the most action-packed metal albums ever concocted. Rating: 9/10" - Front Row Report

"The creator of "Humorcore" knock one out of the fucking park with this one (IV: Revenge of The Vengeance). If you're in a band trying to do parody and funny Metal songs stop right now, you're just embarrassing yourself, you will not be able to dethrone Psychostick. " - Rock Hard Place

"In 'IV: Revenge of The Vengeance' you have more craziness and beard than ever before, weighing in at a whopping twenty one beard bending tracks of strictly tongue in cheek craziness and general insanity with song titles ranging from 'NSFW', 'Quack Kills', 'Loathe Thy Neighbor' and the previously unleashed 'Dogs Like Socks' and 'Obey The Beard' as well as a cover of Kenny Loggins 'Danger Zone'. Add a couple of cameos from Bill Manspeaker, the founder of Green Jello and you can imagine the types of craziness that is unleashed once play is pressed. Simply put, 'IV: Revenge of The Vengeance' is beardtastic and in the words of Psychostick 'Obey The Beard'." - Firebrand After Darkness Mag

"make no mistake about it ' these guys rock first and foremost, especially on this album's standouts, the anthemic "Obey the Beard," as well as "Dogs Like Socks," which explores the complexities of canine/hosiery relations." - Erie Reader

"This new album features twenty-one tracks of skits and songs that will make you listen to it until you can catch all the references from pop culture, the metal scene, and moments of "did he just say what I think he said?" With the fast paced musings of being stalked by a water fowl in "Quack Kills" to "NSFW" that will never see airplay on your local radio station, the album covers a wide range of subjects in its lampooning. It is no wonder their fans, that have had three albums to delight them in metal geekiness and humor, have waited anxiously for this new release." - National Rock Review

"Ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!
Okay, give me a moment. I'm still chuckling every time I think of Psychostick's latest 21 track album Revenge of the Vengeance. Every moment on it is filled with hilarity, from marrying beards, being afraid of ducks and then saving a crowd of people from a dimensional time portal. And I thought I'd heard it all...Tenacious D were the kings of comedy metal, but Rize of the Fenix has made it look like they've reached their hay day, as much as I love them. The king's crown has to go somewhere, and for an album like this, it looks like Psychostick are next in line for the throne." - Rock Revolt Magazine
