"The title comes from a 1980 concert: the infamous Eddie of Eddie and the Subtitles asked, 'Anyone want to hear 'Louie Louie'?' and the singular response came back loud and clear: 'FUCK YOU EDDIE!' And so, 28 years later that witty comeback graduated from the title of Eddie and the Subtitles' debut 7" to our new compilation LP featuring both sides of the aforementioned single, the crème of their LPs Skeletons in the Closet and Dead Drunks Don't Dance as well as several unreleased demos. Eddie and the Subtitles had a critical role in creating the Orange County punk scene; in their heyday, all the lands south of Los Angeles were known as 'The Eddie Empire'. The tracks on Fuck You Eddie! are at once sloppy, fast, fun and profound in their own way. No punk rock collection is worth a damn without it!" Last copies...

Originally released in 1991. "It's rather ironic that while Los Angeles was the capitol of the American recording industry in the mid-to-late '70s, most of the seminal bands of the original New York punk rock scene (the Ramones, Television, Patti Smith, Talking Heads) were able to score major-label contracts, but nearly all of their West Coast contemporaries were ignored, having to rely on fledgling independent labels like Dangerhouse or What? if they wanted to be heard on plastic. Consequently, several important bands, such as Crime and the Screamers, managed to slip through the cracks without ever releasing a proper album, and the Weirdos, who were one of the first major bands to emerge from the L.A. punk underground, broke up in 1981 without making an LP. (They did reunite for a spell in the 1990s, recording an album called Condor with the help of friend and fan Flea.) Fortunately, the Weirdos did manage to release a handful of singles and EPs during their 1977-1981 heyday, as well as demoing plenty of material that never saw release, and Weird World Vol. 1 collects 14 superb cuts that set the record straight -- the Weirdos were, quite simply, one of the best and brightest American bands of punk's first wave. Dix Denney's hard, angular guitar lines suggested melody without sacrificing any of his propulsive punch, while the various rhythm sections were invariably tight, hard-driving, and energetic (the band went through four drummers and five bassists in five years; one of the group's bass players, Cliff Roman, was originally their rhythm guitarist, and wrote a handful of superb songs, including 'Teenage' and 'Life of Crime'). And vocalist John Denny was a genius frontman; manic, funny, and just a little disturbing, John could pour a world of passion and meaning into a nonsense lyric like 'Bop helium bar tonight!,' and his more coherent numbers, like 'We've Got the Neutron Bomb' and 'Pagan' were as hilarious as the Ramones but with a genuinely ominous undercurrent their funny-punk brethren couldn't touch (check the claustrophobic 'Solitary Confinement'). Weird World Vol. 1 is hardly the final word on this great band, but if you want concrete proof that the Weirdos were the great unsung heroes of L.A. punk, you could hardly do better." --AllMusic

2005 release. Originally released in 1981. "Adolescents, also known as The Blue Album due to its cover design, is the debut studio album by American punk rock band the Adolescents, released in April 1981 on Frontier Records. Recorded after guitarist Rikk Agnew and drummer Casey Royer joined the band, it features several songs written for their prior group, the Detours, including 'Kids of the Black Hole' and 'Amoeba', which became two of the Adolescents' most well-known songs. Adolescents was one of the first hardcore punk albums to be widely distributed throughout the United States, and became one of the best-selling California hardcore albums of its time."

2016 reissue. Originally released in 1979 on Dangerhouse Records. "Limited vinyl LP repressing. Pass the Dust I Think I'm Bowie was the only full-length wax put out on the short-lived but highly influential Dangerhouse Records in late '79 and it's full of short, sharp funky revue style tunes with some avant touches here and there, with Black Randy reminiscent of a punk rock David Peel. Numbers about sleeping in arcades, Idi Amin, narcs, laundromats and sperm banks plus anything else to do with the messed -up life he was living needles and too much alcohol. This great version of 'Shaft' has to be heard to get a full understanding of the workings of Randy's thought patterns. Dig the budget organ sound that fits right in with the overall sleazy grooves that his Metro Squad is laying down (it was made up of the cream of LA punks on sabbatical from their own combos such as the Eyes or Randoms) all played with a tight but loose abandon. (Black Randy & The Metro Squad appeared in 1981 satirical punk rock film Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains, performing 'I Slept in an Arcade'.) Black Randy is one of the lost voices of the punk revolution, though by no means is he any way near a punk in the accepted commercial sense. Black Randy (John Morris) died on November 11th, 1988. He still has no peers, amen to that."

2006 reissue. Originally released in 1991. "In 1977, Dangerhouse was one of the first independent labels to jump into the fray and document the burgeoning West Coast punk rock scene, and all these years later their taste and judgment seems damn near faultless -- they released records on many of California's finest first-wave punk bands, including X, the Avengers, the Weirdos, and the Dils, and future members of Wall of Voodoo and the Gun Club were lurking among the members of Dangerhouse's other acts. Thankfully, the folks behind the label were also mindful of production quality, and were able to make great sounding records despite limited means -- their stuff simply sounded better than what most indie labels were offering in the early stages of the game. Dangerhouse Vol. One collects 12 classic cuts released between 1977 and 1979, including stone classics like X's original recording of 'Los Angeles,' the Avengers' anthemic 'We Are the One,' the Dils' blazing 'Class War,' Black Randy and the Metrosquad's superbly perverse 'Trouble at the Cup,' the darkly hilarious 'Let's Shoot Maria' from the Deadbeats, the peerless Weirdos' 'Solitary Confinement,' and what may have been the label's true anthem, the Randoms' 'Let's Get Rid of New York.' Even the lesser-known bands contribute strong material, and this disc's only real flaw is that it is too short -- especially since all the stuff from this album and the second volume (released a year later) would easily fit on one CD. But beyond that quibble, Dangerhouse, Vol. One is a raucous and wildly entertaining look at what was one of America's most vital punk rock scenes, and few collections can match this for sheer power and lunatic joy." -Mark Deming, All Music Guide

2008 release. "The Middle Class are credited with releasing what is considered the first 'hardcore' or 'proto-hardcore' punk record, 1978's faster than fast Out of Vogue. With the 30th anniversary of that ground-breaking and influential EP upon us, Frontier Records is overjoyed to announce the release of The Middle Class: Out of Vogue - The Early Material. The collection includes all of The Middle Class's early studio recordings, along with a never before released four-song 1977 studio demo. This pioneering Orange County band's original sides have been notoriously hard to find, landing in the collections of only those willing to pay dearly for them. Until now..."
