Great songwriters, performers & Brad is a great frontman. They've certainly mesmerized SAB more than once! ;-) Reminds me of a throw-back to great British pop....a retro vibe but still really current. They're awesome! |

'Lennon' is like the revival of an album from Iron Maiden. Yes Skitzo Calypso prooves you can raise the past and the rock that seemed dead...and now 'Ashes of september' just feels like a prophecy come true where Skitzo Calypso rises from the ashes and Niki Thunders (Brad Cox) connects the past and the future with his beautifull words and voice! 'The things I could never change' is a wonderfull poprocksong where a man discovers that the things he cannot change about himself, to be a perfect pray for his lover, are actually saving him from being consumed by his lover, just like some spiders eat their mating partners in an unbelievable selfish way, a way that surprisingly still exists among humans today... 'A Vietnam in the Neighborhood' is fantastic rockmusic dragging you down, willingly, to Niki's own reality.. that is so fine, hard and pure... you just don't want to escape from it... for it's heaven and hell at the same time! 'To die like Morisson' feels like a rocking trip where you find 'God' in everything you see, driving along an endless highway on the sounds of Ennio Morricone, blowing a J, and experiencing new things every day and every stop you make along the way.. 'Twilight on the runway' rocks like only Niki can, with some memories of 'Iron Maiden', 'Madness' and even a little Haddaway (what is love...) No Brad cannot be compared with anyone, only with himself! Amazing rising star! On top of the rocks where the air is thin and the light of the sun is giving and taking life, Nicky Thunders survives. His Britpoprock music cannot be compared with other bands because his music and songtexts are true as life itself. Niki rocks like a real diamond showing truth, pain and love just the way he experiences it. The amazing positive spirit in every song tells you that everything is ok, whatever happens in your life, enjoy it, so you can and will have a happy life and finally, if you want, have a happy ending... too. 'The sickness of dreams' is such an orgasmic rocksong that is like a summary of all desire and pain we can feel in life, with lyrics that sound like like a relic, a memory of how we always seek love, joy, eternity, even if we have to give up life itself for it... Niki is boiling all of his life experiences into new unique sounds that can grab you by the heart, the balls and the throat at the same time! Catch the virus and it will heal you too!! |

Mesmerizing actor's performance, unconventional awe inspiring lyrics and TITLES, energetic and energizing vocals, creative music, sound diversity, catchy intention in his writings and in his voice... He is the perfect artist as a man. Who dare need more to give Niki Thunders the unconditional belief he deserves? Beware, he's gonna be rocketted faster than light. Don't miss the big start or it will be too late instantly! Niki Thunders in five words: creativity, rebellion, imagination, theater, leader. |

I love him, love him, love him! Lyrically and musically addicting. Brad is able to capture what so many artists cannot - your soul. His music is genuine, original and powerful. It is conveyed with passion, percision and performance. I am an incredibly big fan of Skitzo Calypso, too. Brad pours his heart and soul into his music. When I thought he couldn't top himself, he did. Niki Thunders is like a one man band. He is a musical genius and I'm incredibly grateful to have him in my life.

Niki Thunders provides electricity to the realms of Sellaband. He truly exudes talent and power with his interesting and catchy compositions. His vocals are flawless, with a hard edge that perfectly compliments the rocky music he makes. In addition, the music itself never fails to be fun and upbeat, with a heavy lean on the amazingly talented players of every instrument on offer, which in itself glides with perfection through each track here at Sellaband. From the catchy and instant 'The Sickness Of Dreams', Niki Thunders and Co. prove that they can easily grab the attention of potential believers, but it's tracks such as 'To Die Like Morrison' that prove despite being catchy, they have an unquestionable depth and passion for the music they create. Niki Thunders is flying up through the charts now, with good reason! He's the first of his kind on Sellaband, and endlessly promotes himself through forums and messages to believers, and soon 50K will be his for the taking. |

The talent potential from Niki Thunders seems boundless. Current samplings of his music are sure-fire hits. I can only imagine what an entire album of his music will sound like. |

I liked the sound of Niki Thunders right away. The synth sounds and
clear. emotional vocals evoke a bit of an 80's feel, which is right up
my alley, but still sounds fresh rather than just being retro. I love
those solid guitar riffs, and made sure to turn the volume up. "A
Vietnam in the Neighborhood" was my favorite from the profile... no
wait, "The Sickness of Dreams" is. I enjoyed the lyrics in this one. |

Thunderbirds are go; parts are flying with this talented rock artist!! Second best can be best when you listen to the great lyrics and the melancholic but nonetheless masculine sound. The come back kid isn't Sci Fi, he'll get that record for real. |

Thunders delivers high-energy music and a sound that grabs your attention, then directs that attention with authority -- often to a darker bit of reality than hopefully you are inhabiting yourself... |

The brain behind Skitzo Calypso tells us: "I [Brad Cox, the singer/songwriter of Skitzo Calypso] have decided to rejoin the Sellaband community in an effort to release a solo record. Enjoy and believe in this rocking talent from the US!! |

Get a piece of what I believe is going to be one of Sellaband's biggest discoveries in 2008 while you can. |
