The cult punk rock band GBH at the Vintage Industrial Bar

As part of the “Taste Of Madness” festival week, between November 18th and 22nd, the Vintage Industrial Bar will be the venue for concerts by the cult British punk rock band GBH, as well as the legendary American hardcore band Madball.

On November 18th, the Vintage Industrial Bar will be the venue for a concert by the cult British punk rock band GBH. It will be the band’s third performance in Zagreb since their first appearance in 1987, when they put on a show at the legendary Kulušić Club. Five years later they held a fantastic concert at the Boogaloo Club. This time they will perform for the Zagreb audience as part of their latest tour and the “Taste Of Madness” festival week at the Vintage Industrial Bar, which has recently become the go-to venue for performances by various punk rock legends. This festival has been organized as part of the 18th birthday celebration of Zagreb’s Radio Student, and it will take place between the 18th and 22nd of November.

The British band GBH has been active on the music scene since 1978, and it still performs with its original line-up, which is the secret of its success. It rose on the charts with its 1982 debut album, “City Baby Attacked By Rats”. The following year the band released its second successful album, “City Baby Revenge”, nowadays regarded as a punk classic. The band has thus far released a total of 11 studio albums.

Apart from GBH, the concert at the Vintage Industrial Bar will also feature a performance by the Spanish Celtic punk band Bastards On Parade. Local punk bands, Eksodus and Abergaz, will perform as support acts. On November 19th, also as part of the festival, there will be a performance by the American hardcore band Madball and the support acts will include the bands Upset and Last Hope. The regular program, Good Vibrations, will feature an array of performances by local hardcore and punk bands.

Tickets for these concerts, priced at 50 kuna, can be purchased at the Dirty Old Shop and the box office of the Vintage Industrial Bar, or ordered online at www.dirtyoldempire.com/shop. Ticket prices on the days of the concerts will be 70 kuna.
