Thrust


Thrust were a late '80s punk band from Gold Coast, Australia. This 7" was self-released and does not have a date of release on it (nor can I find much info online). They released 2 LPs, 1 in '88 and another in '89 so I think this 7" was released around then. The band plays some poppy riffs and has a bit of a Hard-Ons feel, and according to the description in the youtube video below the drummer was in a band called The Dead Rats which eventually morphed into the Hard-Ons. This cover has a lot going on, but a monster playing guitar while riding a spiked-wheeled skateboard with flaming exhaust through space is pretty rad.
