Deadscene

Formed in the early 1990s, the Chicago and Central Illinois-based Deadscene was an Oi! / hardcore band known as the first Illinois Oi! band to have members which were both Punks And Skinheads. Deadscene is also known as Skullkrusher, Wardogs & The Revenge. The band changed names three times to avoid problems with promoters in the later years. And also as a response to the exit of *Joel (Moe) (bass guitar / backup vocals)and the entrance of *Natasha (guitar)
