Friday July 6th Death Sentence hit Victoria on their "Jak Attack'' Tour 2012. Death Sentence are one of the most powerful, enigmatic, explosive hardcore bands of the 80's. The quasi legendary group of shit disturbers hail from Vancouver British Columbia and were one of the pioneering bands in the mid to late 80's of a type of sound being called "crossover". Their street wise hardcore punk lent itself to a more raucous rock sound, flat out no bullshit songs against authority (often about the underground escapist drug/party world of the Vancouver set) and of coarse a fast delivery and extremely loud live performances.. Influenced by The Damned, Bad Brains, Alex Harvey, ACDC, Guns and Roses, D.O.A., The Stranglers, The Stooges, The Ruts, The Clash, and a whole lot of G.B.H. - Death Sentence are a different kind of tension.

Formed in Vancouver B.C. in the early 80's they seriously got their "kit" on with the line-up of Pete "Cleaver, Puke, Nipplehead" Keller, Tim "The Doc" Challenger, and Doug "Donut" Proulx, and Syd "Gimmie Max"" Savage in early 1984. Their current line up consists of Doug Donut, Syd, Mike former Dayglo Abortions, Jamie former Excessives and Real McKenzies, Dan Scum from Power Clown. The band has toured with Black Flag, MDC, Bad Brains, D.O.A.,and G.B.H.

Joining them are Victoria's own booze fueled punks the Keg Killers and skate rock punx Class of 1984. Doors at 9pm. $10 at the door.
