Criminals - Original 1983 US American Standard label 6-track 12" EP

Original 1983 US American Standard label 6-track 12" EP - Los Angeles based punk rock combos first 12" - featuring members T.S.O.L., The Klan, Vicious Circle, and The Vice Principals.

'Four of the songs are great west coast punk, noisy, driving and melodic| Criminals is a real KBD hit. The other two tracks have more RnR influence, not too interesting. A great record nonetheless. Loud raunchy guitar driving r-n-r with hints of rockabilly in the vein of Zeros or Dead Boys. The forerunner for The Humpers, Devil Dogs etc. Highlights are Criminals, Ms. 714 and the rockabilly song Bedrock. Also a cover of Crocodile Rock that blows the orginal out of the water."
