About

BulletBoys is an American hard rock/glam metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1987. The group's original lineup was composed of singer Marq Torien (formerly of Ratt, King Kobra, and Kagny & the Dirty Rats), guitarist Mick Sweda (formerly of King Kobra), bassist Lonnie Vencent (formerly of King Kobra), and drummer Jimmy D'Anda. The group released two successful albums and had a number of singles featured on MTV between 1988 and 1991. From the 1990s onward, the group went through numerous lineup changes, with Torien as the only consistent member. Their most recent album From Out of the Skies was released in 2018. The original lineup reunited for one-off shows in 2011 and 2019.

The group were strongly influenced by AC/DC and Van Halen, with Torien drawing comparisons to Van Halen singer David Lee Roth.

BulletBoys est un groupe de heavy metal américain, originaire de Los Angeles, en Californie. Il a été formé par le chanteur Marq Torien et le guitariste Mick Sweda en 1987. Ses deux premiers albums, Bulletboys et Freakshow, ont rencontré un succès commercial et critique. Chacun a été vendu à plus d'un million d'exemplaires.

Le groupe est souvent comparé à Van Halen période David Lee Roth, car Marq Torien possède une voix très proche de « Diamond Dave » et le jeu de guitare ressemble à celui d'Eddie Van Halen. Le producteur de BulletBoys, Ted Templeman, était aussi celui de Van Halen période David Lee Roth.
