Collection of Long Beach punk bands, sassy, poppy melodic, old school LA style, funny lyrics, serious, but all good fun, all great stuff, including live tracks by old school bands Secret Hate and Falling Idols recorded 2001 as well as live tracks by some “all star” one off bands. Showcasing well the very rich Long Beach punk scene, steeped in fine tradition of blood sweat and spit. All tracks very old school with new school nod to melody and pop.

1) upbeat straight up
2) faster
3) female sassy vocs “I like drugs” great!
4) oh yeah! A cover of Deep Purple’s “highway star”, complete with doubled up wanky guitar leads, this rocks in an almost serious way
5) careful, some low volume FCCs in the intro, dirty rockin after you cue up to the start of the music
6) long intro, band addresses the audience, then ¾ spooky almost western feel, cool heavy passionate epic rock
7) FCC in intro (“shit”) forward through MC intro for some upbeat healthy old school punk

14) hard rock feel, cool treatments in end
15) basic old school melodic hardcore
16) FCCs
17) melodic

21) crosses the line into pop-punk, yuck
22) head banger feel intro, rather predictable nu-punk, icky
