Scheisse Minnelli
Sorry State Of Affairs
Fourth full length Album by the infernal Bavaria/California Skatepunk collaboration featuring Enfant Terrible Samuel L - a dozen hi-octane skatecore tracks, following their full speed ahead Hardcore/Thrashpunk mission again (after a mini-LP intermezzo with acoustic songs). The 4 skate-aholics had another line-up change during 2012, which resulted in Mickey Porter finding himself on position guitar... Mickey is a veteran of the Northern California / Oakland / Bay Area Punk- and H.C.-Scene and played in countless bands and toured countless countries. Soon after he had joined Scheisse Minnelli started writing tons of new songs again... 12 of those can be heard here, other releases will follow soon... These here have a certain concept and subject, dealing with Ex-Californian Sam L being a crazy alien in Germany and also reporting about the (frightening) memories of his native country... "Sorry State Of Affairs" is not really a concept album, but the divide "Hessian Nightmares" / side A and "California Dreams" / side B , which is a slightly sarcastic use of the word "dream", gives a little sample what this record is all about. The album was recorded live with the band in one little room, no headphones, no overdubs, all amps full blast. Oldschool Thrashpunk/Skatecore in the paths of RKL, Verbal Abuse
