One of the heaviest bands to emerge from the Philadelphia rock scene is Slik Helvetika. From the glory days of the Philadelphia and New Jersey rock scene of the 80s that spawned Cinderella, Britny Fox, Pretty Poison, John Eddie, and an entire laundry list of artists who went forward to be stars, there was a band called Destroyer. Led by Michael Myers, the band had unknowingly sidestepped all the woes and pressures of being “that commodity” and unwanted influences. Taking some time to let the songs and playing develop to be the best it could resulted in that band today called Slik Helvetika. Lots of driving energy, melody, memorable chorus hooks, great playing and strong lyrics.

The line up has always featured Michael Myers on lead guitar and vocals – who has had the privilege of playing alongside a variety of talented musicians, such as Kjell Benner [formerly of Quiet Riot] and Vern Parsons [Greg Howe]. The newest full release, Walk Through Fire, which drops through Deko Entertainment on February 20th, kicks off with the first single that was released in December Solar Head. Which, begins with an unsettling actual recording of solar wind, then erupts into full ass kicking mode.

Walk Through Fire consists of 13 blistering tracks including a cover of the Sweet’s “Fox on the Fun” and the title track, which the group's long-time singer/guitarist/songwriter Myers was happy to elaborate on.

"Do you ever feel like you are walking through fire just contending with the daily insanity and events of this world? Question everything! Humans have been giving up their power and potential by letting those who think they are in power create a mental box of falsities and limitations. We all should be different people today than yesterday if we continue to learn as we go. Right? Many stopped asking questions, acquiesced and bowed down to so-called 'authority figures' and put the blinders on. Those same authority figures run highly advanced psychological operations to divide us, keep us fighting with each other while they rob us mentally and literally. Those who noticed and objected to this system since birth are not alone.”

Myers continues, “Is AI becoming all the rage by surpassing humans? Maybe it is surpassing the mentally bankrupted and limited victims. Unlimited humans have potential capacities to walk over red hot coals, to see when blindfolded, detect colors without eyesight, remote view, perform psychokinesis, obtain photographic memory states from sub liminality and so much more. Stop believing you are insignificant. Your thoughts and consciousness create reality. You are more than you are told.....!”
