| | X : Los Angeles - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) |
 | | Such bands as Black Flag, the Germs, and, especially, X were the leaders of the pack, prompting an avalanche of copycat bands and eventually signing record contracts themselves. |
 | | X's debut, Los Angeles, is considered by many to be one of punk's all-time finest recordings, and with good reason. |
 | | Los Angeles is prime X, offering such all-time classics as the venomous "Your Phone's Off the Hook, but You're Not," a tale of date rape called "Johnny Hit and Run Paulene," and two of their best anthems (and enduring concert favorites), "Nausea" and the title track. |
