While bands such as Poison and Warrant were riding high on the charts, Lizzy Borden was a lesser known but still exciting band delivering powerful riffs and amazing vocals to fans of hair metal. If you were one of those head-bangers paying for concert tickets to the glam-metal scene, then Lizzy Borden’s concerts will be a treat for you!
Named after the infamous young woman who killed her parents with an axe in the 1890s, Lizzy Borden formed in 1984, primed to ride the crest of glam-metal after Motley Crue’s Shout at the Devil established its sound in 1983. The band’s frontman shared the name of his band, and they released six records throughout the ‘80s, reforming in the ‘00s and releasing albums more sparingly.
Though they were largely swallowed up by the sea of glam-metal bands that took over the rock charts in the ‘80s, Lizzy Borden received the recognition they deserved from a highly loyal fanbase to whom their theatrical performances appealed to. They obviously borrowed a bit from the master of costumed rock, Alice Cooper. If you want to see them again, then get Lizzy Borden tickets now!
