Pkdores

Chicago-based Latino Oi!/punk band formed in 2002. Members of Youth Against and Sin Orden. < Biography > Pkdores was formed in the streets of Pilsen 18th st. (Chicago neighborhood). The neighborhood was alive and kicking Spanish hardcore. Los Crudos (early 90's), Youth Against (mid 90's) and Arma Contra Arma had paved the way for the second generation of Spanish Hardcore (late 90's) like Sin Orden, Tras de Nada, I Attak. Pkdores (early 00's) saw a chance to change the traditional Hardcore for the traditional 77 punk style. Heavily influenced by the neighborhoods politics, culture and the working class ethics, the raw, loud, and at times melodic sound was born in the winter of 2003. Since then Fernando and Nuco have remained the original members (former Youth Against members) trying to keep the band alive. 2006 saw the release of their first 7" on red vinyl. Getting a great response and reviews. 2009 they are currently working on a full length CD.
