Punk Rock 101 is in session and you're looking at the
"Exile On Main Street" of old school punk. 15 minutes
and 45 seconds of pure LA punk in 1980. 14 songs
that belong together, stick together and refuse to
compromise. Other bands would try, one or two
may have come close, but none that came after
this album have been able to top it...The Horror!!

Prindle Record Reviews - Circle Jerks
Sometimes in life, you start off really good and then gradually rest your leg in the toilet. Such is the way with two of the most popular L.A. hardcore bands of the early 80s, X and the Circle Jerks.
"What the Jerks offered to their audience in and out of the studio was a rush of reality-depraved subjects, but yet, they centered around the reality of the life of an insomniac, a high-class pervert, and of course, and anarchist. Morris, after leaving a newly-established Black Flag with haste, partnered up with guitarist Greg Hetson, and later picked up drummer Lucky Lehrer, and bassist Roger Rogerson, and got right down to the addicting late-nights and constant touring that later led to the recording of Group Sex." - Sputniknusic
