Strike a Chrod
Milwaukee punk rock band Avenues joins STRIKE A CHORD to release their new album “We’re All Doomed.” With insane bass fills, drumming, rhythm and vocals, it took 4 years to make this album. Drummer Marc Alan Perez suffered an intestinal infection requiring physical therapy to learn how to walk again—fortunately for this album he is back at the drums! Every rock band has their quirks and for Avenues it’s Galaga! YES the 80’s arcade greatest video game of all time Galaga! Vocalist/guitarist Vin Smith was at a regional Galaga competition when the album dropped—“when duty calls you’ve gotta blow up some battleships!” We call that the Galaga Incident! The album “We’re All Doomed” is exceptionally important to the band—it screams a message about determination and commitment to your craft as an artist.
