X

[EightMilesHigh]

I picked up Los Angeles by X a while ago.

Discuss one of the greatest punk bands of the '80s. :)

[Rockafella]

Los Angeles seriously owns so hard.

[DaveToopes]

Is it bad that I have never heard them, despite how much I have heard about them? I think I'll finally check them out.

[Brain Toad]

****ing amazing band, I love them. I wrote a band profile on them, which is also the band profile on Sputnik.

[skavid]

Exene Cervenka and the Original Sinners in town tomorrow!!! I can't wait for the show.

You're not alone. :upset: I've been meaning to check out X for the longest time.

[D & V]

Johnny Hit N Run Pauleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeene

[sub-bass]

I haven't found an album by them and it's impossible to find stuff when downloading but I've heard nothing but good things, Is John Doe a famous actor or something too?, I was reading something somewhere....

[EightMilesHigh]

Yeah, John Doe has done some acting.

[Anxious]

Naseua.

[Mannik]

Never heard them either. I will soon though

[guitar, bass, sax]

You don't have to answer me, you don't have to call me back, your phone's off the hooooooooooooook

BUT YOU'RE NOT

[AndreTheHyena]

Interestingly enough, the alt. country-pop darlings the Old 97's are weirdly intertwined with X (Exene sings on "4-Leaf Clover", John Doe plays guitar on Rhett Miller's solo album). Just a little geek trivia...

But yeah, X ****in' rule.

[Bukowski]

Johnny Hit N Run Pauleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeene

catchiest song EVER! I can never get it out my head.

X are awesome.

[Theramed]

ive got more fun in the new world and it was in my cd player for almost a month

[asdf]

We have in our laundry room this beautiful signed picture of Exene that my mom took. It's inspired me to take concert photos, but I still have yet to here the band.

Album recomendation?

[Bass_ment]

Got Los Angeles and I thought it was amazing,
any other suggested albums?

[Robert Crumb]

They were playing that festival on Sunset Blvd. in LA a couple years back with Love and a buncha other bands, if I remember correctly. I really wanted to see that. But I was leaving town.

In any case, very awesome band. I had "Cyrano de Berger's Back" stuck on my mind for while. I'm not sure why.

[EightMilesHigh]

Album recomendation?

Los Angeles. Or one of their live albums.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeee had to leave Los Angeles. :cool:

[SantaDuJuan]

I never really got into X.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Yeah, John Doe has done some acting.
He was in Seven refl

Umm, yeah Los Angeles is the one and only X release I've heard but it is quite sensational.

Same here. They are talked about with high regard, but It is so hard to find any of their material.

[DaveToopes]

I could easily find some on Soulseek but I am running out of space on my computer.

[PunchLine89]

The world's a mess, it's in my kiss is an incredable song. X rule.
