BAND BIO

WE RESERVED THE RIGHT in 1984 and now MADAM X is calling in the marker!  MX has returned - ALL original, ALL outrageous and ALL TOGETHER - ready to ROCK! With an arsenal of their original liquid-razor tunes (“Metal In My Veins”, “High In High School”, “Come One Come All”) that continue to be played worldwide plus all-new, ripping anthems & relentless ear-gasms as only authentic MX can deliver!  Putting aside distance & differences, original members BRET KAISER – Vocals, MAXINE PETRUCCI – Guitar, CHRIS “GODZILLA” DOLIBER – Bass Guitar and ROXY PETRUCCI – Drums have come together once again to create the pounding-in-your-face-cream-on-your-tongue music that is MADAM X.  Originally signed in ‘84 to JET RECORDS by none other than the inimitable “Godfather” DON ARDEN (father to Sharon Arden Osbourne), Madam X recorded “We Reserve The Right” guided by producer RICK DERRINGER (“Rock& Roll Hoochie Koo”, Edgar Winter, Alice Cooper, Cyndi Lauper).  With several U.S. & UK tours, two MTV videos, recording, etc. to their credit, the band’s obvious internal fraying, 80’s excess and egos finally led to a parting of ways for MX even as Jet Records met its own demise. 

However, with an almost cult-like following the fans have remained loyal, seemingly gathering momentum over the years with a new generation’s appetite for glam-slam metal and still buying re-released copies of “We Reserve The Right”.

2014: burnished and honed individually over time in their separate pursuits, MX’s uniquely balanced, inexorable male/female 4plex assault on your eyes and ears is back with a killer dose of metal in your veins - establishing MX as never having left the arena.

SEE it/HEAR it live, June 2014 at the SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL - the reunion of a metalhead-lifetime - not to be missed!
