The record

Title: dB Smashers - I Got Loaded

Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1983 / Punk / Power Pop Punk / Milwaukee

Matrix #: ER-399

Condition: NM/M/Sealed (VZ)

Cultural Facts:

  1. Scene Ecology The band came out of Milwaukee’s DIY underground, where punk and new wave overlapped in smaller club circuits far from the New York and L.A. press centers.
  2. Media Narrative Records like this often slipped through the cracks on release, which is exactly why they later became cult-bin favorites for collectors chasing regional U.S. punk and power-pop obscurities.
  3. Studio Lore I Got Loaded sits in that early-80s zone where melody and sneer coexisted, showing how a lot of American underground bands were loosening pure punk into something catchier without going fully commercial.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
