The killer little monsters are back… alive (or almost)!
Yes, the undead going live couldn’t have called their new work anything else but “UNALIVE”!

From October 31st, 2025, in perfect Halloween style, the first-ever live album by The Killerfreaks, entitled Unalive, will be available on all digital stores and streaming platforms.

Recorded during their explosive performance at Luppolo in Rock 2025, expertly mixed by Stefano Steve Volta (Pino Scotto, Perpetual Fire, Mr. Jack) and released by Wanikiya Record/Promotion, the album captures all the energy and dark humor of the Varese-based horror punk-metal band, active for over twenty years in the Italian underground scene.

A journey through heavy riffs, cheeky choruses, and horror movie atmospheres, with the typical sarcastic and self-ironic touch that has always defined The Killerfreaks. An album bursting with rott’n’roll in every track—dirty, direct, and undeniably alive!

The album will also be available in physical format, by contacting the band directly via DM on their official social media or at the merch table during their shows.

Release Party – “Delayed Halloween”
The band will officially present Unalive on November 1st with an exclusive release party at TuMiTurbi in Varese, accompanied by Sluter & Friends, the historic Valtellina formation continuing the horror-glam legacy of the late Ughy The Witch.

“Spaghetti Horror and Rotten Stuff” – the previous album
Already the authors of the successful “Spaghetti Horror and Rotten Stuff” (released May 3rd, 2024, also via Wanikiya Record), The Killerfreaks confirm their wild, unclassifiable nature, bringing all their madness and passion for genuine horror rock to the stage.

Wanikiya Record/Promotion states:
“With Unalive, you can finally experience the Killerfreaks live in the most authentic way possible: in person! Crank up your speakers and get swept away by this pure adrenaline rush! The album will be available on all major international music stores, on our Japanese shop, and on our Crashsound Distribution showcase.”

BIOGRAPHY
Founded in Varese in 2004, The Killerfreaks embody the essence of the most visual and theatrical horror-punk-metal.

Inspired by Kiss, Misfits, and Death SS, they combine heavy melodies, thrash outbursts, and ‘80s glam spirit, with lyrics dedicated to horror movies, full of irony, sarcasm, and pop references.

Throughout their career, they have released two self-produced albums—Flesh, Blood & Rott’n’Roll (2013) and A Load of Rott’n’Roll (2017)—and performed over 200 shows across Italy, in clubs, motorcycle gatherings, and festivals such as Loud and Proud, RockInnSomma, and Wings of Bea Metalfest, sharing the stage with bands like Domine, Strana Officina, and Ancillotti.

In 2008, they opened for The Crimson Ghosts, pioneers of German horror-punk.

Frontman Mefisto is also a former professional wrestler in Total Combat Wrestling and a comic book artist, author of works including Nocticula – Resurrezione, linked to Nocticula Resurget by Boris Hunter (ex Death SS).

Rott’n’Rooooll!!!

The Killerfreaks are a Horrorpunk-metal band from Varese, active live since 2004. They are distinguished by a very flashy look, drawing inspiration mainly from artists such as Kiss, Misfits and Death SS. Their songs are fiercely disengaged, consisting of an energetic sound and shifting from classic heavy melodies to thrash metal outbursts, up to more 80s Twisted Sister-esque “anthems,” with explicit lyrics, mainly dedicated to horror movies, always seasoned with a healthy dose of irony, sarcasm and references to 80s Pop culture. Over the years, they self-produce several demos and two albums, “Flesh, Blood & Rott’n’Roll” (2013) and “A Load of Rott’n’Roll” (2017). In 2014 they recorded with Ul Mik, “Dai, dai l’è tardi,” a cover of “Die, die my Darling,” for Longobardeath’s album “Old Time Balabiott.” In 2024 they signed with Wanikiya Record (Blaze Bayley, Timo Tolkki, Pino Scotto…) and released “Spaghetti Horror and Rotten Stuff,” recorded and mixed by Steve Volta. Although they have always stayed away from agencies and record labels, preferring the “do it yourself” method, they play over 200 live shows in clubs, motor gatherings, clubhouses and various festivals such as the Loud and Proud, RockInnSomma, Wings of Bea Metalfest, etc… opening for bands of the thickness of Domine, Strana Officina, Ancillotti, becoming for fans a true cult band niche. In 2008 they played backing act to The Crimson Ghosts, godfathers of Teutonic Horrorpunk. Mephisto, the frontman, is also a top wrestler for Total Combat Wrestling, as well as a comic book artist. Among his works, he recently drew the comic book “Nocticula – Resurrection,” as merchandising coupled with the release of “Revenge” by Nocticula Resurget, a band of Boris Hunter, former drummer of Death SS (In Death of Steve Sylvester and Black Mass).
