After 5 long weeks of living on the road, surviving off of cheap greasy fast food and beer, Rockford's own Sleeze has returned to their Sleeze Mansion.
The band's tour covered several states with over 30 gigs spanning across the United States. The self-described "Psychedelic Groove Metal" band hit both coasts as well as The South and Midwest, making sure to leave their mark wherever they went.
"We slept in every Walmart parking lot we could find," recalls Isaac, the bands vocalist. "We met a lot of strange people throughout the tour. We witnessed a murder in Arizona, we were almost hit by a dump truck in Brooklyn. We woke up to a van engulfed in flames in a parking lot in Louisiana. We made enough money to get to the next gig, so I say it was successful."
After telling me how and where he left his mark(in every bar he played), Isaac revealed some interesting information. "We filmed everything."
Three years ago the band released Sleeze The Movie, a movie documenting the bands journey to record their debut self-titled album. The new film will follow the same idea, but will instead follow the band through the highs and lows of touring the country.
So what happens next? Sleeze will be sharing the stage in front of thousands for the second time, performing alongside strippers and porn stars at the 8th annual Chicagoland Sexcon in Arlington Heights, IL at H.O.M.E. (the House of Music and Entertainment)
The event was annually held at the Castle before it was closed down and promises a night full of adult fun. Party buses, entertainment via dancers and deejays as well as head banging goodness in the form of Sleeze.
"The band killed it last year and we're gonna kill it again this year," says Isaac, who tells tales of dodging dancing strippers and flying shoes during the performance. "By far it is the biggest and wildest show I've ever done."
For tickets you can contact the band via Facebook and join the party!
