GATECRASHERS - Desillusioned EP 1980

Only record by the Gatecrashers from Denmark, a very short-lived band (1979-1980). They were part of the DIY movement & released this bloody sucker via the legendary Irmgardz label (singer Kenan was part of the founders), they arranged their own concerts, designed their own posters and had their own fanzine. The band consisted of members Ken Revoltaire (Kenan Seeberg - vocals), Martin Crash Accident (Martin Lind - guitar), Carsten Crewcut (Ole Nyegaard - Farfisa), Peter Durup (bass, 1979-1980), Ole Dreyer (bass, 1980-81 ), Torben Østergaard (drums), Henrik Halvor (drums, loosely attached), Hans Brydegaard (drums, loosely attached) and Lene (Aleine Stern). The band played for several punk concerts "Concert Of The Moment", "NÅ!!80" and "Concerto De Nobrainos Insanos" and regularly at the Danish punk places Rockmaskiner, Saltlageret and Huset in Magstræde. They were inspired by the Stranglers and Doors. One of the hallmarks of them was that the band often had televisions standing on stage which they smashed with an ax great posture during the song "TV & Radio People". On some cool compilations present, one of them Bloodstains Across Denmark. Great KBD stuff!
