EVIL SUPERSTARS Boogie Children R Us 1998

by request
 
 
 
Belgian band from Heusden-Zolder (Limburg), created around 1992 by Mauro Pawlowski (vocals, guitar), Bart Vandeput (drums), Marc Requilé (samples, keyboard) and Bart Vandebroek (bass). Two years later, they entered the Humo Rock Rally (a music contest), and won. At that time, drummer Johan Van Den Berghe was replaced by Dave Schroyen. A fifth member joined the band later, the 15-year old guitarist Tim Vanhamel.

Evil Superstars released two albums before disbanding, playing their last gig on 15/09/1998, at the Botanique in Brussels. Each member went on playing, in solo (Mauro Pawlowski) or in other bands (Millionaire, The Shovels, Ultracowboy, Vandal X, dEUS, Mitsoobishy Jacson...).

EVIL SUPERSTARS Love is Okay 1996

Artist Biography

Belgium’s Evil Superstars, who comprise Mauro Pawlowski (vocals, guitar), Dave Schroyen (drums), Marc Requile (keyboards), Bert Vandebroek (bass) and Tim Vanhamel (guitar), became one of a number of mainland European groups alongside Whale, Bettie Serveert and the Cardigans to procure UK and US audiences in the mid-90s. They recorded their debut EP, Hairfacts, in 1995, before touring with Placebo and achieving notoriety for their ‘Satan Is In My Ass’ single. Encompassing several traditions of music such as jazz, reggae and hard rock, the impression of eclecticism was confirmed by the 1996 release of Love Is Okay, which shaped these diverse influences into pop songs of genuine merit and accessibility. Boogie-Children-R-Us repeated the formula to lesser effect.
