The Villains pride themselves on their roots, making sure live shows stay raw, spontaneous and loud. With the release of their debut album "Black Jackets"(2011), the Villains have pressed their souls to CD. Like the dirtiest of homeless vagrants dressed in the finest tuxedo, the band brings revelation and slight sophistication to an otherwise unpolished sound. Drawing on blues and early punk rock influences, Villains Like You can be mentioned in the same vain as The Stooges, MC5, The White Stripes and The Hives.
