Social Distortion is one of those bands I discovered later than most people, so my experience with them starts in the 90’s, even though they released their first full-length album, "Mommy’s Little Monster", in 1983.
This was just one of the times Social Distortion seemed poised to make it big in the mainstream, but for a variety of reasons--front man Mike Ness's drug habit and jail time included--the group remained a fairly underground favorite.
While Social Distortion's start came during the late 70’s-early 80’s punk surge out of Orange County, CA, this album showed the ever-increasing influence of country on Social Distortion’s music, mainly due to Ness’s love of old rock n’ roll and country masters like Johnny Cash.

 DECAPOLIS : Social Distortion- Sex, Love, and Rock 'n' Roll
In the eight years since the last Social Distortion album we have seen the rise and fall of ska, the dawn of the nu-metal era, the birth of the mall-punk generation, and now the onslaught of teary-eyed emo bands.
Maybe it's because so many bands have imitated Social Distortion's sound that some of their fresh and innovative aspects have been watered down and the songs have lost some of their punch, but for some reason I don't love this as much as I thought I would.
It is by no means a perfect record or even the album of the year, but it is was a logical step for the band to take at this stage in their lives.

 More Info on social distortion - - socialdistortion - - socail distortion
Social Distortion (often known as Social D) is an influential punk rock band that formed in the late 1970s and is still together today.
Taking time between albums became a pattern for Social D. Ness acknowledges in a 2003 interview that it is a little backward, marketing-wise, to play songs for the fans for a few years before recording them but it has always worked well for them.
Social Distortion is currently working on their follow-up to Sex, Love and Rock 'n' Roll, which is due for release in late 2006 or early 2007.

 DECAPOLIS : Social Distortion - Live In Orange County DVD
It was their most mature and reflective album and their last studio album with Mike Ness, Dennis Danell, John Maurer and Christopher Reece as Social D. They were the heart and soul of the band since 1984 until 1996.
They became some cheap comic book band without their cornerstones and Dennis Danell was one of the cornerstones to Social D. A year and a half before Dennis died, Social D. recorded one of the best live albums ever.
The band has released their first album since 1996 and they are out on tour now but they shouldn't be called Social Distortion now.

And understanding what Social Distortion is about is important for understanding their music.

I find live albums (at least for the most part) to be great stuff.
Social D has been popular with punks for over two decades now, despite the fact they've released only 7 albums since forming in 1978 in LA. Even that total includes Mainliner, which was nothing more than a compilation of early singles and b-sides.
This song is about as close to pure pop punk as Social D has gotten over the years.

It nicely expanded the productivity and songwritings of the previous "Social Distortion" album (that album was good in particular songs but not great as a whole compared to this one), yet still kept the level of raucousness and bluesness in their fashion.

 Social Distortion grows up a little, but remains punk
Social Distortion (from left, Jonny Wickersham, Charlie Quintana, Mike Ness and Brent Harding) is a stalwart of '80s punk.
The voice of defiance heard on early Social Distortion albums such as "Mommy's Little Monster" and "Prison Bound" has grown more mature and contemplative through Ness' solo records and the years leading up to the 2004 Social Distortion album, "Sex, Love and Rock 'n' Roll."
Sober for 21 years and credited with such A-plus Social Distortion albums as "Social Distortion," "Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell" and "White Light, White Heat, White Trash," Ness now dabbles in the rush of horsepower while writing new songs for the next Social Distortion album.

With Prison Bound, Social Distortion began to metamorphasize from a rather ordinary L.A. hardcore band into a roots rock band willing to make with more than their share of the attitude, and this process continued on their self-titled third album (which was also their major-label debut)....
Social Distortion isn't a great roots rock album, but it's a pretty good one, and it's better and more affecting than anything this band had cranked out before.

 Review: Social Distortion, White Light White Heat White Trash - Jeremy Ashcroft   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
I say this by way of apology: this album is good, but in the same way that some people can't really enjoy the music of, say, Kate Bush, just because of her very distinctive voice, my enthusiasm for Social Distortion is lessened purely because of the vocals.
is Social Distortion's sixth album, and although some previous releases have reflected the band's interest in rockabilly (such as Hank Williams), this one is firmly rooted in the U.S. punk rock that the band grew up with.
Highlights include the album opener, "Dear Lover" - which after its misleading intro, which could have been The Cranberries' "Zombie" - truly bursts into life; "I Was Wrong", which quite rightfully given its anthemic feel is the album's first single; and "Pleasure Seeker" which has an Instinct-era Iggy feel about it.

Social Distortion combines the outlaw atmosphere of rockabilly with the zest of early punk rock.
The whiny guitars and blues influences of classic rockabilly mixed with the overamplified power of punk rock make up the bulk of Social Distorition's sound, injecting punk rock with a sense of tradition not often found in the genre.
