Heart Attack (band)
Heart Attack was an American early New York hardcore band formed in 1980 and active until 1984. History Formed in the suburban area of Whitestone, Queens in New York City, they were probably the youngest punk band in the New York City area at the time, according to some flyers and fanzines, as the first line-up was formed by people from 12 to 16 years old. Their first demos (''Hitler Demo'' and ''The Mojo Sessions'') was heavily influenced by English punk rock, especially Sex Pistols and The Clash, with hilarious lyrics, but soon after attending a CBGB show of the Bad Brains, singer Jesse Malin and guitarist Jackie Flanagan decided to switch genres to the latest wave of punk, hardcore. Heart Attack existed for less than four years, part of the NYC hardcore scene with other bands such as the Beastie Boys, Kraut, Bad Brains, The Undead, The Mad, Reagan Youth, The Misguided, and Even Worse. Heart Attack was the first band of the area to go on tour in the rest of the United ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
