Circle Jerks Vinyl Records

Circle Jerks were an American punk rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1979 by ex-Black Flag vocalist Keith Morris, Greg Hetson of Redd Kross, and former Redd Kross drummer Lucky Lehrer. The band was heavily influenced by the likes of The Germs, Black Flag, The Damned and The Sex Pistols.

Their first album, Group Sex, released in 1980, featured their most popular songs, including "Wild in the Streets," "Back Against the Wall," and "Live Fast Die Young." The album was a critical success and helped establish the band as one of the most important punk acts of the era.

The band's follow-up album, Wild in the Streets, was released in 1982 and featured the popular title track as well as "Operation," "Beverly Hills," and "All Wound Up." The album was a commercial success and helped further cement the band's reputation as one of the premier punk acts of the 1980s.

The Circle Jerks' last studio album, Wonderful, was released in 1985 and featured the popular tracks "When the Shit Hits the Fan," "American Heavy Metal Weekend," and "Won't Somebody."

The band broke up in 1987, but their influence continued to be felt throughout the punk rock scene in the 1990s and beyond.

An interesting fact about Circle Jerks is that Keith Morris was the original vocalist of Black Flag before leaving to form Circle Jerks. Additionally, the Circle Jerks' song "Wild in the Streets" was featured in the popular 1985 skateboarding movie, Thrashin'.
