D.O.A.: Smash The State
Released 2007
An excellent look back at the beginnings of punk rock in Canada, D.O.A. Smash The State features concerts clips and other documentary footage from the early years 1978-1981. Concerts include the legendary San Francisco venue Mabuhay Gardens, San Francisco club On Broadway, an Anarchist Anti-Canada Day concert in Stanley Park and more.
Snotty punk-is-just-beginning British accents abound from Keithley and crew on classic songs like Rich Bitch, Let’s Fuck, Disco Sucks and many more.
You’ve got to hand it to the D.O.A. guys - they toughed out from those rough and tumble beginnings and are still sticking it to the system some 30 years later.
