Dug out some ancient Kraut albums today. Boy did I love this stuff at the time. Has it aged well? Arguably. But "Last Chance," "All Twisted" and "Juvenile Justice" -- to name just three -- all still hold (as far as I'm concerned).
I expect this to be a sparsely attended thread.

The friend who turned me on to punk when I was 12/13 had a copy of An Adjustment To Society, but I never got around to listening to it - was too caught up in Flipper and the DKs.

i reviewed AATS for the voice in 83 (no doubt I posted that on yr last kraut thread - it's a slow sunday). these guys were good, more clash-like than fastloudrules hardcore IIRC. in fact didn't kraut open for the clash at one of the infamous bond's shows?
do any of these dudes make music anymore?

Doug Holland maintains the Kraut website, I know that much. No clue what happened to the rest of'em. WITHER JOHNNY FEEDBACK?
I know they did a reunion show prior to the demise of CB's.

"All Twisted" was a great tune. I remember liking the first album quite a bit, mostly on the tone of Doug Holland's guitar.

Revive.
I ran into Doug Holland of Kraut yesterday. You can read a full account -- should you give the slightest whiff of a damn -- right here!
