Featuring members of Stretch Arm Strong, Wretched, and Guyana Punch Line, Brözerker is what would happen if Jeff Spicoli were to wing on over to Venice Beach, jam with Suicidal Tendencies to write songs inspired by Municipal Waste – after going on tour with the Beach Boys, who just scored a Mötley Crüe cassette.
Brözerker was formed by Rabies and Dtox, two long time bröz who spent way too much time together living in vans on tour. Drawing from their pile of stories, inside jokes, experiences, love of skateboarding, surfing, sippin’ suds, punk rock, hardcore, and heavy metal, they started writing songs simply to make each other laugh and get stoked. There was only one rule; “no hassles”. Songs flowed like a freshly tapped keg or a well designed skate park. The fun was so contagious that Johnny Good Times and Tiny joined the party.

Glossary for the Stay Rad EP:
Break – A place where a good wave can be surfed.
Bröz – Good friends.
Bomb hills – To aggressively ride a skateboard down a hill.
Close-out – When the entirety of a wave breaks at once, thus prohibiting the surfer any access to the face of the wave.
Cut off – To catch a wave on which another surfer has priority because of their relative location closer to the peak.
Di@k – A kook.
Ding – A place on a surfboard that has been damaged.
Dirty Dozen Ramp – A mythical ramp that only a selective crew of skaters have ridden.
Goofy foot – A person that skateboards or surfs with their right foot forward.
Homie – Brö
Jetty – A collection of rocks or other hard surface that goes out into the ocean, typically to mitigate erosion. Jetties are often a place where sand builds up and waves break consistently.
Kook – 1. An uninformed person in a situation where being informed is crucial. 2. A square. 3. A person that tries too hard to be cool but is inauthentic and not cool.
Left – A wave that breaks so that the rideable part, or the face, opens up on the left side of a surfer if she has her back to the horizon and face to the beach.
Line up – the place where surfers sit on their boards and wait for waves to catch.
Low Block – A DIY skateboarding location in South Carolina.
Overhead – This is a subjective measurement of wave height, but typically means that the wave is at least bigger than the person surfing it.
Peak – The highest and earliest breaking part of a wave. Ideally, this is the place where a wave is caught.
Position – place in the line up, respective of the peak of the wave.
Rad – If you don’t know by now, it may be too late.
Regular foot – A person that skateboards or surfs with their left foot forward.
Right – Opposite of a left
Rip – To shred
Shoulder – The safest part of a wave that is still rideable. Catching the shoulder is generally frowned upon. Catching the shoulder when someone else has the peak is a disrespectful gesture.
Shred – To do something energetically, proficiently, and with reckless abandon. For example “Johnny Good Times shreds the guitar. “
Stick – A surfboard or skateboard.
Wax – A vinyl record.
