A stylish, high-energy rock act.
The winners of the Wacken Metal Battle Germany 2025, GUN CALLED BRITNEY, have announced their first full-length album for 2027. What began on the stages of Hamburg’s Reeperbahn in 2019 has evolved into Germany’s most serious contender in the sleaze rock scene, within just a few years. Five musicians from Hamburg, self-built laser guitars, and a liveshow that turns any club into a stadium: GUN CALLED BRITNEY combine the spirit of the Sunset Strip with German groundedness and plenty of charm. Their lyrics are brutally honest. They are driven by a desire to break free —from routines, expectations, and the feeling of putting life on hold for a future that never seems to arrive. “Ready to crack my bounds - Someone set me free” Back in 2020, Metal Hammer already named the band one of the most exciting German newcomers in the genre. A serious of singles and festival appearances followed. In 2025, GUN CALLED BRITNEY won the Wacken Metal Battle Germany Finals, performed at Wacken Open Air and Dong Open Air, opened for a sold-out crowd in Hamburg for Motörizer, and toured Germany as support for Nestor. The band is currently working on its debut album, which is scheduled for release in 2027.
Gun Called Britney plays high-energy sleaze rock and hard rock inspired by the 1980s Sunset Strip scene.
The band originated in Hamburg, Germany, emerging from the city's Reeperbahn rock scene in 2019.
