THE LIMIT CLUB slowly drifts into… Read Full Bio ↴Like a surreal Summer nightmare...
THE LIMIT CLUB slowly drifts into your subconsciousness and haunts your every
thought. The sharp stabbing guitar and throbbing, thumping bass sound is at once
abnormal and completely familiar - As though the soundtrack to your cloudy midnight
hallucinations has been presented openly for your eyes and ears to absorb by this
mysterious third party.
Taking influence from a diverse range of artists including The Damned, Captain
Beefheart, Morrissey, T-Rex, the Quakes, Johnny Cash, Ricky Nelson, Klaus Nomi and
the Sisters of Mercy, Nick Feratu began crafting a collection of original tunes in 2004.
He and Cadaverous Joel began combining the elements of these different genres to
form a brand new sound. DarkWave, Goth and DeathRock mixed with Neo-Rockabilly
create The Limit Club's signature resonant sound. It is the varied set of influences and
unnatural musical enthusiasm that ignites the engine behind the band and constantly
pushes them onward.
The band formed by the handsome duo of Nick Feratu and Cadaverous Joel in June of
2005 after their previous garage rock music project "The Non-Dairy Creamers"
imploded. This new band would have a slightly more professional approach to the
music and performance, while keeping the frenzied danger and the
"Anything-can-happen" element which helped to make the live shows so compelling.
Nick and Joel recruited The George for drum duty and the original lineup was complete.
Consistent live performances, endless streams of new songs and an explosive stage
presence helped spread the word and propelled the band with rocket speed to the top
of the Arizona Psychobilly pack in record time. Before they knew where they had
landed, the band found themselves performing with some of the biggest names in the
Rock and Roll Underground - Zombie Ghost Train, The Koffin Kats, The 7 Shot
Screamers, Mad Sin, Frenzy and Blitzkid among others.
THE LIMIT CLUB went into the studio to record their first full length album in November
of 2006. The album, titled "God Damn The Limit Club" features 13 original tracks was
independently released in June of 2007.
Soon after the recording of "God Damn The Limit Club", The George announced his
departure from LimitClubLand. One Mr. Juan Carlos seized the position and gave the
band a new lease on life injecting an energy the band had never seen before and
introducing his ability to switch from a New Wave dance beat to a balls-out punk rhythm
at the drop of a hat! After a few months of sitting down on the job, Juan Carlos decided
to join the rest of the band up front and took to playing drums standing up (thanks in
part to the influence of Paul Roman).
In 2008, The Limit Club recorded studio album number two entitled "Phantom Cats".
The album is ten tracks and features their versions of "The Shadow of Love" and
"Alice". The album was recorded and engineered by Nasty D @ Fuck City Studios (God
Damn The Limit Club) and mixed and mastered by John Kowaleski @ Rebirth Studios
(The Koffin Kats - Drunk In The Daylight). In early 2009, Cadaverous Joel was relieved
of his duty in The Limit Club so that he may focus his attention on raising a family.
Nicholas David, the versatile new bassist was brought in to fill the gap.
Now as always, The Limit Club forges ahead. They can't stop and they won't stop.
Spreading their infectious, dance-able Psycho-Gothic sound to the unsuspecting
masses until death brings them down with blazing fury.
Spread the word:
Rockabilly Rules, and Gothabilly Ghouls!
The Limit Club has been featured on numerous underground and
mainstream radio broadcasts and news publications including...
EVIL-A-GO-GO, SUBCULTURE COLLECTIVE, TALES FROM THE SHADOWS, SCARE STREET,
SOUTHSIDE CUSTOMS, SCARE WAVES, KWSS 106.7 AMY DONAHUE RADIO SHOW, PHOENIX NEW TIMES,

The Limit Club Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Such an arduous endeavor
I roll around and clench my fists
And grind my teeth forever
And in my dreams I shake around
Until Iβm halfway dead
When I wake up and look around
My appendages, my extremities, my digits all ache
The reality Iβm faced with is that itβs time to shake
Shake
Nothing left to think about
And nothing to pass the time
Nothing left to take away
This irritation in my mind
I tried to call and tell you
But you didnβt give a damn
And thatβs the way itβs been since
This catastrophe began
I just canβt take the way you cause my fragile heart to Break
The reality Iβm faced with is that itβs time to shake
Shake

Being all alone is
The feeling of being isolated and without companionship is
Such an arduous endeavor
Extremely difficult and challenging
I roll around and clench my fists
I toss and turn, gripping my hands tightly
And grind my teeth forever
Continuously gnashing my teeth
And in my dreams I shake around
In my dreams, I tremble uncontrollably
Until Iβm halfway dead
To the point where I feel almost lifeless
When I wake up and look around
Upon waking up and surveying my surroundings
And find that Iβm alone again
Realizing once more that I am in solitude
My appendages, my extremities, my digits all ache
My arms, legs, and fingers are all in pain
The reality Iβm faced with is that itβs time to shake
The truth I confront is that I must take action
Nothing left to think about
No thoughts remaining to occupy my mind
And nothing to pass the time
No activities available to fill the hours
Nothing left to take away
No more things to remove or eliminate
This irritation in my mind
The annoyance and agitation within my thoughts
I tried to call and tell you
I attempted to contact and inform you
But you didnβt give a damn
However, you showed no concern or interest
And thatβs the way itβs been since
And that has been the situation from
This catastrophe began
The start of this disastrous event
I just canβt take the way you cause my fragile heart to break
I cannot withstand how you continuously shatter my delicate heart
The reality Iβm faced with is that itβs time to shake
The truth I confront is that I must take action
Shake
Exerting forceful movement and shaking
