DC hardcore legends Scream are back in Europe this summer, playing a handful of dates around their Rebellion Festival appearance on the 6th August, including appearances at Italy’s DLB Festival, Belgium’s Brackrock, Slovenia’s Punk Rock Holiday, and a co-headline show with Adolescents at London, UK’s New Cross Inn on the 7th August. Originally formed across the Potomac in Alexandria VA in 1981, Scream were the first on the scene to release a full-length album on DC’s legendary Dischord Records label, in the form of ’83’s Still Screaming album. The band would go on to become a training ground for a teenage Dave Grohl prior to his stint in Nirvana.
