Habbo Bands was a small competition on Habbo.co.uk held in June 2007.

Habbo Bands

Habbo Bands are more than just your average selection of celebrities and stars. Pixelated they may be but don't let that fool you into thinking they aren't world famous, popular icons to look up to and aspire to be! Their popularity shouldn't come as any real surprise though since you'll already be familiar with our selection of lyrically gifted, arm pit modelling and fashion statement making beauties after their return to fame last year.

So what's new? Well, up until now their music has been sealed to the land of Habbo imagination. A mysterious land where everyone has a room full of Super Rares and Habbos can skip freely through cherry blossom filled meadows of petal patches and unreleased bamboo patches. I hear you. Thank goodness Trax arrived to pop that bubble!

Forget the bamboo patches for a moment.

Sound has arrived in Habbo Hotel and with it another new competition for you to get invovled with. We have 8 Habbo Bands in total, each with a different style of music to their name. During the course of this week we will be introducing you to them all and setting you the challenge of creating their next hit single!

So, grab a carrot, have a munch and read our competiton information below!”


Competition

Once you have finished your song, you should move your room into the Habbo Bands category floor so other Habbos can find it and listen.

Group 1 - Bonnie Blond and The Smiling Headbangerz Bonnie Blond Genre: Pop Pop music is a bit like bubble gum. It gets stuck in your teeth, tastes really sweet and makes you choke. Most famous for the hit singles 'Scam me baby one more time' and 'Whoops! I banned you again' Bonnie's last album, 'I really am Blond' sold more copies than HelKat's solo effort 'Tea for me'. Bonnie Blonde poster costs 5 Credits.


The Smiling Headbangerz Genre: Punk After all the original members of Joycore Division ran off and joined the Genos, Dart Andrews had to build a new band. So he did. Monoculture was released early 2004 and proved to be a success among the older generation of rockers, with them playing to sold out Dromes all over the world! Their most recent single 'Man without Furni' was a limited edition release last Summer. Smiling Headbangerz costs 5 Credits.

Group 2 - Scamm'd and The Screaming Furnies Scamm'd Genre: Rock Misery loves company, and this band's massive fanbase is proof of that. This is a band so sad they even burst into tears during last months 'Unban Ghost-Fairy' concert. Their smash hit single 'Girlfriend in a tubmaster' won several ducks at last years Habbo Music Awards, and with their new album 'Majestic' debuting in the fall the question is: can their fans wait that long? Scamme´d poster costs 5 Credits.


The Screaming Furnies Genre: Indie Slowly moving away from their folk roots, this band are beginning to find their feet among a new generation of listeners. Their last album 'This is Joycore' featuring the near-hit single 'You are my only rare' has been in the charts for three months, granted it is at the bottom of the charts, but their star is slowly rising.

Group 3 - Habbo Babes and DJ Throne Habbo Babes Genre: Ambient This band's line-up has changed more times than Habbo Eat magazine care to keep record of. Meeting in the shady west London offices of pop svengali UKchaserAl, this 'sweet like sugar' band has exploded onto the Habbo Music scene, despite only recording one album in four years. The new DJ Throne remix of 'Console me' was released last summer and breathed new life into a Habbo Babes classic. Habbo Babes costs 5 Credits.


DJ Throne Genre: Dance DJ Throne hasn't actually been up to much lately. After the release of his last album 'Get ditched, or lie trying' he has been spending most of his time working on remixes with Majestic resident DJ, Phil Collinz. He has plans to release a collection of remixes on limited edition vinyl towards the end of the year. DJ Throne costs 5 Credits.

A very talented bunch and what a great new single "Punk Rock Roses" is. They could be destined for big things.. but failing that Johnny Squabble should be able to help them out with jobs as arm pit models!

Rock Fusion by Rock Fusion does exactly what it says on the CD cover. It's a fusion of Rock and Metal that, like the Smiling Headbangerz, could fill Dromes the Habbo world over!

  • Description: Goth rock hallelujah!
  • Band leader: !-=HellBoy=-!

Taking the world of rock by thunder storm, all by himself, with his great hit in the making, Devil's Parade. A marvellous talent who offers great live performances and at this rate could even feature at the next unban Ghost-Fairy concert!

Everyone loves toast or at least everyone puts up with toast if the cereal just has the stale bits left at the bottom of the box (they're supposed to go crunch not squish!) Clearly it's a winning formula for The Habbo Bunch as they embark on their epic journey to fame!


Thanks for all your great band entries and screenshots! If you didn't get chosen this time then make sure you boost your chances of winning something by entering our Habbo Band Single competition. Closing date is Wednesday 27th June so you'll need to be quick!”
