We Got The Neutron Bomb: Weird World Volume Two
Colored Vinyl - 31075
Sealed 2003 Colored Vinyl Original. "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. It's Straightforward Ominous Snarling Punk, Not Quite Hardcore But Getting There, Not Too Big On Melody But Not One-Chord Thrash Either. A Bit Of Experimental Industrial Rock Creeps Into The Denney Brothers' Instrumentals "Hey Big Oil" And "Skateboards To Hell," And Some Rockabilly Revivalism Into The 1980 Live-In-The-Studio Covers Of Link Wray's "Fat Back" And Hank Mizell's "Jungle Rock." It's The Late-'70s Material That Fans Will Probably Be Most Hungry For, Though, Including Not Just The "We Got The Neutron Bomb" And "Destroy All Music" Singles, But Also A Live 1978 Track And Two Slightly Crudely Recorded 1977 Live-In-The-Studio Numbers." - AMG

Who? What? When? Where? Why?
New - LP - W3
Sealed 1979 Original. “The Weirdos'First Two Singles ("Destroy All Music" And "We Got The Neutron Bomb") Were Instant Classics Of Los Angeles Punk And Made Them Kings Of The West Coast Scene For A While, But By 1979 They Were Eager To Show That They Could Do Something Just A Wee Bit More Professional. With The Help Of Producer Earl Mankey, They Tightened Up Their Sound For Their First 12" EP, The Six-Song Who? What? When? Where? Why?. From The First Moment Of Speeded-Up Counterpoint On The Opening Track, "Happy People," Who? What? When? Where? Why? Boasts A Higher Level Of Studio Craft Than The Singles That Preceded It, And The New Rhythm Section Of Bassist Billy Persons And Danny Benair On Drums Is Flashier And More Precise That Their Predecessors (Though Benair Lacks Nickey Beat's Manic Flair). However, Guitarists Dix Denney And Cliff Roman Sound More Powerful Than Ever In This Context, And John Denny's Feral Howl Remains A Manic Joy To Behold. Add Some Of The Weirdos' Best Songs -- Including "Fort U.S.A.," "Happy People," And "Hit Man" -- And You Get A Record That Proves This Band Could Sand Off Their Roughest Edges And Still Deliver Some Ferocious Rock & Roll.” – Mark Deming, AMG
