Same year they were also participating on the compilation of european punk bands called "Chaos in Europe", on the French New Rose label.The year after they got the chance to have an album released by US company Subcore Records "The End of Laughter" and to do a two month US tour, which resulted in 27 shows at various venues which made them play together with such acts as Circle Jerks, Gang Green, JFA, SNFU, Instigators, DRI, Saint Vitus and many more.Slam´s last shows in 1987 was at the now defunct Ungdomshuset in Copenhagen, and Fagersta Fokets Hus.No digital material have been released with Slam digitally until 2008 when they appear on "Swedish Punk Classics Vol.2", Svenska Punk Klassiker vol. 2.

Tack som fan! Tappade hakan när jag råkade snubbla in på eran sida. Precis den sköna blandning av Hc/skate och rock som jag letat efter en tid. Var kan man hitta era plattor nånstans?/fredrik
ROCKEN KOMMER FRÅN GÄVLE !!! som Mora Träst myntade på 70-talet, haha...
Någon återförening lär det väl inte vara tal om i första taget... får väl först se om de andra tycker att det är Ok att lägga ut sidan ??? Hoppas det i allafall =) Det var 24 år sedan Revenge började lira, o kanske ännu längre sedan Slam startade ??? Fan, vi gamla Gävlerockers måste hålla ihop Tony, haha...
Faan Tony, Om Highvalley blir byggt så bara måste ni göra en reunion å spela Gävle polispatrull. Bara en spelning i någon sorts nostalgirus. hann ju bara se er ett par gånger men det var gryttmt.
Hi mates! Thanx a lot for your comment! I was really shocked when i listened your songs because you sound very very similar to a spanish (well... basque) punk band from the 80's... good luck with all!
