This week, journey back to the years 1986 and 87. When a young Kevin scraped and bruised his knees, elbows, shins, and wrists constantly. Yes, the years of skateboarding and the discovery of a particular brand of punk and hardcore called: Skate Rock! Discover the sounds that inspired him to start a band and the alternative counterculture movement that would shape the rest of his life. It’s all about blazing wheels, barking trucks, and being possessed to skate!

What is it we do here at InObscuria? Every show, Kevin opens the crypt to exhume and dissect from his personal collection: an artist, album, or grouping of tunes from the broad spectrum of rock, punk, and metal. This week, we look back at the very beginning of his discovery of the power of music and the distortion-fueled sounds with a lasting impact. Hope you enjoy and that we turn you on to something new!
