One correction, the megadeth shown and the megadeath mentioned are two completely separate bands. The songs Making the Bombs and Killing for Jesus are Mega Death songs (kzbin.info/www/bejne/ql68f4CYjtWmfpI here's killing for jesus)

I got into the circle jerks (punk in general) in the most ass backwards or punk fashion possible. I got introduced into both by breaking into a car and stealing the case of tapes which introduced me to the circle jerks via golden shower of hits and 6. To this day golden shower of hits is in my all time top 10 punk records of all time. It’s cool and timeless which is quite an accomplishment for a punk record

My rule these days is when this shit happens, I'll still privately consume the media if it's important to me growing up but I'll never give another cent that will go towards them and I'll never mention or recommend them to anyone. You can't undo the impact these creators have had on you while still making sure they never do harm to anyone again. You can't go back and jam a different band into your early teens. That will forever be Anti-Flag or Rancid or whatever other band decided to be shitbags and cover it up. Fucking sucks, no way around it.

Crossover bands were great and fun, and it was proof both sides could get along. To be honest, I feel it was the punks and hardcore kids who were more dismissive of metal heads. Bands like these helped bride the dividie.

@@HonestDepression101 I gotta say I think at this point I’d say I like the Circle Jerks more than Black Flag too. Don’t get me wrong I like em both a lot, but out of all the records both of those bands made, I think Group Sex is probably my fave.

Appreciate the background work... You covered alot of facts I was not aware of. I have been following nufan since don't miss the train and saw them for the first and sadly only time on the 95' warped tour. Still have my signed Duffs hat from Tony. -- This was one of if not the most impactful band in my life and I feel Tony was the most articulate, detailed and prolific song writer. He never got the "main stream" praise that a bunch of the same era bands archived. but I am not sure that was Tony's goal. I saw an interview where Fat Mike said that Tony was one of the best song writers hes ever worked with and from where I am standing I could not agree more. Wish he was still with us but he has never left my go to song catalog.

I don't know why more people dont talk about this - I think Lucky invented the skank beat (fast punk beat) that was taken and used by thrash and fat wreck bands. Unconfirmed but I cant find any other band doing that prior to Group Sex, Red Tape is the best example. Would be interested if anyones found an earlier version. You know the beat, its the beat in Linoleum by NOFX.

Love the Circle Jerks! Great band period. My favorite album from them is Wild In The Streets. My favorite song is easily Letterbomb! It’s a song that rips from start to finish. I got to see them play at the Hollywood Palladium in 2022! It was Circle Jerks, 7 Seconds, Bouncing Souls and Negative Approach. Circle Jerks headlined and they absolutely crushed it! Thanks for doing the video. Love your stuff man keep it up!

I saw Circle Jerks in 83 in DC at the (old, smaller) 9:30 Club. Keith was so wasted he said "Good evening Baltimore!" between songs. May have been joking, if so, even funnier. Show had about 500 people. My friend went to talk to them after and booked them the next night (a night they had off) in Charlottesville Virginia. She told them "There will probably only be 100 people there, it's a small place and short notice." They said "fine" and played for 80 percent of the door. Cover price was 3 dollars, 2 local bands opened.

12:53 "....they crammed in 18 tours in support of Golden Shower of Hits." This is an odd and incorrect statement in an otherwise solid video. First, early hardcore bands, including the Circle Jerks, didn't "tour to support a record." They weren't Journey or Boston. Most hardcore bands then, including CJ, toured non-stop regardless of what their last album was. Secondly, that sentence sounds like cheesy cliche rock writing. The stuff that made Zappa say "Rock journalism is people who can't write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read. ."

I would like to know what you view as a Circle Jerks song about partying with your friends? I would argue that (stupid) message, in a punk context, would be seen as negative. (If you wanted that stuff, people would have just listened to the likes of Van Halen back then, whose songs were all about getting drunk, fucking girls, bullying nerds and how cool they were.) For example, in Black Flag's "TV Party" or 'Six Pack", or in DK's "Too Drunk To Fuck" where they are mocking people who are drunk and dumb, kind of like Nirvana's "stupid and contagious" people in "Teen Spirit." The way punk tends to operate is not to model what they think is good, and not to say "I think that's bad" (as Jello Biafra once commented to Jools Holland) as a preachy hippie might. Instead, they tend to dramatize those they see as assholes and satirize them to paint them as selfish or dumb or worse. PS: I like your defiant hairdo.

Hey Jack, how come you are the singular example of a Gen Z who doesn't sicken or enrage me? What's going on there exactly? Could we redeem the rest of your generation by mass producing a synthetic version of your plasma in industrial quantities and forcibly injecting it (I'm thinking dart gun?) into them as they are preoccupied with video games, social media images, auto tuned hip hop crap or anything other than reading or engaging in real life on any meaningful, organic level? Do you think that might work?

You know, actually I am convinced that my idea is actually solid. You know what Walter White from "Breaking Bad" would do? He would use that Halloween event you're going to play at as a testing ground for this theory. 😉
