Retrön is a band with a weird past.
They started out as a videogame about buffalos, swirling knives, naked indians and mythical creatures.
Retron was the name of the main character, a time travelling robot in search of his creator.
The band was born after an offer to play the music from the game live.
Not wanting to bring laptops and pretendig to rock, Retrön decided to bring out an arsenal of guitars,
huge amps, and synthesizers and kill the audience’s expectations go what such a soundtrack should be.
The music has been described as Lightning Bolt sexually abusing Thin Lizzy at a ketamine fuelled afterparty at Jean-Michel Jarre’s high temple.
Retrön are known for loud, energetic live shows with epileptic eye-candy.
Retrön just put out their first full-length album, Swordplay & Guitarslay.
