11/02/1989 - Hirscheneck - Basel (CHE): The Dirty Scums - Upside (ITA)

ALTERNATIVE #2 (CHE) - Summer 1989

Well, probably you're familiar with The Dirty Scums, but if not, here's some info about them. In early 1989 I saw them in Basel, and it was a good atmosphere, lots of pogoing and fun, but The Dirty Scums have some meaningful songs too. They like to play live and they do it very well. It seems hard to be a punkband in Belgium as they had some serious problems sometimes to get gigs just because they don't have much or no metal influences. Even if the band exists since 1981, they still stay to their sound. Pablo
