Hailing from Denmark, Animalyze is a glam-rock band known for their high energy, catchy lyrics, and powerful riffs with loud drums. Their dynamic stage presence captivates audiences, making each concert a thrilling experience. “A satisfying event for any rock lover,” says a fan, echoing the excitement of those who have seen them live. They burst onto the scene in 2022 at High Voltage, starting as an unpaid act and quickly gaining popularity. Their return to the venue led to three sold-out shows, establishing their dominance. Since then, they’ve performed at famous venues like Rust, Pumpehuset, and Cirkusbygningen while attracting attention from Danish media like SE&HØR and Sladderkongen . “At an Animalyze concert, you experience a full spectacle. The show defines us,” they state. Their music reflects the bold spirit of 1980s rock, with vibrant colors and energetic performances. “We don’t just hold concerts—we create unforgettable shows that blend music and visuals,” they assert. The story of Animalyze began in 2017 when lead guitarist Clay Ronson and drummer Chris Clark discovered their passion for music. Finding the right singer and bassist was a challenge, but in 2021 they met lead vocalist Vikki Mahrt, reigniting their dream. The lineup was complete in early 2022 with bassist Mike Lauren joining in March 2024. Fans wanted studio tracks, leading to the release of their first two singles in 2023, “Can’t Be Tamed” and “Hot But Dangerous,” recorded at ARK Studio and Panalama Studio. Critics praise their bold sound, with one saying: “They embody the lively spirit of 80s glam-rock. It’s impressive they sound like they belong in Hollywood’s prime, even though they weren’t around then.” Animalyze represents a fearless revival of glam-rock, blending classic vibes with modern flair. As they capture audiences and push boundaries, this Danish quartet is set to make a lasting impact.
