The litany of SoCal hardcore classics continues at
Drastic Plastic Records with the reissue of one of
the all time greats: Wild in the Streets by the Circle
Jerks.
The Circle Jerks have come to typify the last great
youth movement in America: The hardcore punk
movement of the late 1970s and early ‘80s. Wild in
the Streets, the band’s second album, is the Jerks
in classic form: poignant, political, sarcastic and
raunchy. And the cover features a gang of youths led
by none other than Mike Ness, of Social Distortion.
Wild in the Streets proceeds Golden Shower of Hits
also available on Drastic Plastic Records.
ORIGINAL MASTER: Our Wild in the Streets reissue
was mastered from the original, Jerks-approved mix
which only appeared on the first vinyl pressing in
1982, and never on CD.
