	THE WEIRDOS OFFICIAL SITE
		In early 1977 The WEIRDOS mighty sound and singular style were the big-bang igniting the L.A. punk rock scene.
		This was'nt just goofy sloganeering this was a stance intended to distinguish The WEIRDOS as a band apart from the burgeoning punk rock scenes in New York and London.
		After all, The WEIRDOS were dwelling in thier own urban wasteland (LA) which they embodied in thier songs, graphics and clothes.

	EDWARD DE BONO'S MESSAGES - 11th May 1998
		Creative weirdos often have to go to extremes to show that they are 'different' and that they are truly 'creative'.
		Weirdos tend to be rather protective and jealous of their creative talents.
		Weirdos want to be the sole source of creativity and feel threatened by other sources.

	breakmyface.com ~ Weirdos
		From 1977 until 1981, The Weirdos were a do-it-yourself operation from top to bottom.
		The Weirdos had their beginnings way back in 1971, when I met Cliff Roman in an art class at North Hollywood High School (art being one of the few classes I attended with any regularity.) Cliff and I became good friends, our comraderie centered on discussing art, music, girls, and all things weird.
		But without a doubt, the main catalyst in the development of the Weirdos was the release of the Ramones' first album.

	TrouserPress.com :: Weirdos
		The Weirdos were arguably the first and best entrant in late-'70s Los Angeles punk.
		Unfortunately, the original quintet splintered before the Weirdos began making longer records, leaving the Denney brothers (singer John and guitarist Dix) and guitarist Cliff Roman to carry on, employing various sidemen with stellar but less poignant results.
		In '88, the Denneys formally relaunched the Weirdos.

	The Punk Vault » Blog Archive » The Weirdos - Live Radio CD
		The Weirdos are one of the first, and one of the absolute best bands from the first wave of Los Angeles punk.
		While The Germs got all the attention, it was The Weirdos who gave them their first show and helped pave the way for generations of punk bands that followed.
		Of The Weirdos early material, I don’t think there exists a single bad song and this live document is proof of that statement.

	Citizine Reviews - Dangerhouse: Punk (Weirdos, Avengers, the Dils, Alice Bag)
		Another important track, with a song and style much emulated, is the Weirdos' "Solitary Confinement." The Ramones may have been first to build a "wall of distortion", but the Weirdos' blaring "wall" of overdubbed, powered up fuzz guitars is much thicker.
		Released in early 1978, this Weirdos track pre-dates Orange County punk imitators (Adolescents, etc.) who would be releasing records with this guitar tone years later.
		According to David Brown, the Weirdos were "visually overwhelming" live but never made it as big as they may have deserved.

		Which is really what the Weirdos, to come back to a point -- we were do-it-yourself literally in every facet, from flyers, artwork from the singles -- all the artwork, all the graphics, all the clothes, everything we did ourselves out of, you know, we were completely self-contained.
		We got together and hammered out a way of doing the Weirdos in '03 and '04 so that we could give it what it needs to have to be put across.
		Not the Weirdos, but the scene at large, as it inflated and got bigger, it got even crazier and more dangerous, which was exhilarating but….

	Rolling Stone : Weirdos Drop New "Bomb": Weirdos
		Pioneering Los Angeles punk rockers the Weirdos have lined up a short West Coast tour for this winter to plug their new anthology, We Got the Neutron Bomb: Weird World Volume Two.
		The group, now in its twenty-sixth year, has gone through occasional periods of dormancy, and the shows, currently slated to begin November 29th in Seattle, are the Weirdos' first in four years.
		And timing is fitting for the band, with multiple musical generations of post-punk groups having sprung from the Weirdos' roots.

		The L.A. punk scene's best kept secret (much to the perpetual frustration of their fans), the Weirdos have continued to be kept unjustly arcane over the years.
		First of all, one has to respect that the Weirdos were doing it before most.
		They formed in '76, and from the earliest of several various stages of their short time as a band, they were one of the most explosive groups in any of the infantile punk scenes.

	Splendid Magazine reviews The Weirdos: We Got the Neutron Bomb
		The Weirdos have never been known for their consistency, but you can't fault their longevity.
		Both tunes reveal a band caught somewhere in between the sardonic punk rock of the seventies and the pre-keyboard new wave that followed it.
		The skittering, pseudo-danceable beats and politically-charged lyrics separate The Weirdos' sound from their East Coast contemporaries; in their day, they helped to define Los Angeles's burgeoning Pacific punk scene.

	Mr. Gasser & the Weirdos - Free Music Downloads, Videos, Lyrics, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
		Gasser & the Weirdos was led by none other than cult artist Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, who is widely known around the world for his infamous "Rat Fink" character, who has graced numerous bits of merchandising over the years -- models, collecting cards, key chains, and t-shirts, among other items.
		Born on March 4, 1932, Roth developed a fascination at an early age with airplanes, fast cars, and scary monsters, which led to the youngster building things out of wood (his father was a cabinet maker who encouraged Roth to use his workshop).
		Gasser & the Weirdos, a whacky surf outfit that released a few recordings via Capitol Records -- 1963's Hot Rod Hootenanny, and a pair in 1964, Rods N' Ratfinks and Surfink!.

		Tonight was a bill that has been all the buzz around for a couple months now, The Weirdos were gonna be playing again.
		As one of the founding bands from the LA punk scene, lots of people came out early to pack the place out and claim a spot closest to the stage.
		One thing we liked about the show is that they did not waste time saying how they were this or that like some of the older bands do, The Weirdos just kept on playing song after song and pretty much let that do the talking for them.

		Anyway, that's what he means by "left-wing weirdos." He means people who win primaries for the kinds of candidates that John Droney doesn't back.

	Review - The Weirdos: We Got The Neutron Bomb: Weird World Vol. Two (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Weirdos, Hollywood's class of '77 punksters created hyper-charged music that was equal parts '60s garage sensibilities and snotty punk bravado, with elements of rockabilly, glam and artiness, though the artiness extended mostly towards their bizarre fashion sense.
		Musically, the Weirdos cranked out some of the most infectious, rocking, amped-up punk rock, fueled by often hilarious yet socially conscious lyrics.
		Lastly, there's a couple of my fave Weirdos tunes: a remixed version of "The Hideout," and the killer 1977 Bomp!

	Weirdos
		Helmed by brothers Dix and John Denney, the Weirdos played a wonderfully simple mixture of midtempo (occasionally fast, but mostly midtempo) sci-fi-tinged surf-spy minor key chord sequences and happier-sounding melodic chord explosions of beauty and bliss.
		EPs (as close as the Weirdos ever got to an album the first time around), as well as singles and rare demos.
		As long as you're not expecting bitter social commentary from something called "Cyclops Helicopter," you should hopefully be able to get into the happy diversical Weirdos strain of living, loving and not managing to keep a band together for more than 4 or 5 months at a time.

	MyDD :: What is with the weirdos at the top?
		Well, as Paul Krugman reminds us today, George Bush made a deliberate point of telling the media (through surrogates) that one of the reasons he pushed Larry Lindsey out the door was because he was a fatso who didn't exercise.
		That is weird to me at the age of 29, and pretty much would have been weird to me at the age of 19, too.
		I remember once at a family reunion where my at times oddly competitive brothers and I challenged each other to a series of Sumo Wrestling matches, but at the time I was no older than 19, which would have made them 24 and 26 respectively.

		As you might expect from a band that recorded infrequently and sporadically, there's a ragtag feel to this compilation.
		Ten of the 16 tracks, indeed, were previously unreleased; also tacked on are the late-'70s singles "We Got the Neutron Bomb" and "Destroy All Music," "Skateboards to Hell" (the B-side of a 1979 Denney Brothers single), "Hey Big Oil" (from the Denney Brothers' 1981 LP), and two songs from the 1990 Weirdos LP Condor.
		Although the material spans a dozen years (with a big gap between 1982 and 1988), the sound actually doesn't change much.

		Consequently, several important bands, such as Crime and the Screamers, managed to slip through the cracks without ever releasing a proper album, and the Weirdos, who were one of the first major bands to emerge from the L.A. punk underground, broke up in 1981 without making an LP.
		(They did reunite for a spell in the 1990s, recording an album called Condor with the help of friend and fan Flea.) Fortunately, the Weirdos did manage to release a handful of singles and EPs during their 1977-1981 heyday, as well as demoing plenty of material that never saw release, and Weird World, Vol.
