Bored in the mid-70s. Hate that stuff like Foreigner and Boston, so we start a band The Skabbs. It was cut short in 1979 when our songwriter and frontman dies at just 26 years old from a life-long heart condition. The Skabbs were too weird for the art crowd and just terrified the hippies. And now here is the debut album, a collection of never before issued recordings from 1977-78. „Ab-so-lute-ly amazing” Californian pseudo punk
Idle Threat LP and CD by Jackpot, cassette by Burger Records
