Power Pop Rock makes a come back~!
Its hooky yet hard-edged, guitar-driven music experience! Harken to the days of Bad Finger and The Move, influences of The Kinks, The WHO to Cheap Trick and The Knack; a RetroFuture sound of that 70’s and early 80’s genre, Power POP is everything a genre could be, from the heavy arena-rock hook to the cooing, teenybopper-friendly verses and chorus. VIX 20 is bringing back one of first postmodern music genres The current hits out are full of catchy, melodic hooks and energetic moods …DIGITAL AGE & ANGLE ON MY JET SKI take you back to the days of that 45″ to the days of let’s listen to the first song then “on the flip side” The songs hybrid style of pop and punk with a bit of Rock is an experimental of stylistic melodic distant alternative to prog and the hippy troubadours, but a odd ball cousin to glam.
VIX20 with their Brit Power POP music is feel good, foot tapping musical excursion that keeps you coming back for more. New music is due out in August make sure and stay tuned for that.

Here is a brief bio on the band from the back…put straight forward…
Bios?…One of the many things Mills and CJ haven’t missed during hiatus from the ‘music biz’. Usually a band would flash their pedigree and tell you about all the incredible things members of Vix20 achieved during their years in music. Regale you with stories of rock n roll decadence, tours and air miles…from Rick Wakeman on a beach in Tenerife to L A Reid in New York City, not to forget becoming Dutch Rock Heroes…but you probably wouldn’t believe them anyway.
And so it was 25 years after their first school band and after a period of time spent apart sheltering from industry BS, label politics and amoral men in suits, CJ and Mills quite accidentally started making music again…strictly for fun, right?Sure, right up until Mills arranged the commercial release of ‘Digital Age’. This has made CJ very angry but Mills thinks it will be fine.Each cut on the Vix20 debut album draws from their eclectic influences.
The sound? Debut single ‘Digital Age’ sits on the progressive pop punk shelf; while other tracks on the album range from alternative to progressive rock back to punk.2019 looks like a busy year for Vix20 or they may decide to give it a few more summers.
The Insights to their music….
Digital Age.Digital Age is a snapshot of trying to understand a world you used to own. A time when the Walkman was king! We also got to reference all our favourite cartoons in the video.
Angel on my jet ski. Based on a true story of the biggest character Mills and Cj know….The ultimate homage
