Circle Jerks

8 concerts

Formed in LA in 1979 by former Black Flag vocalist Keith Morris and guitarist Greg Hetson, Circle Jerks became a leading force in hardcore punk. Known for six studio albums and landmark record Group Sex, the band defined the alternative music scene of the 80s and 90s.

Gorilla Biscuits

Hardcore icons Gorilla Biscuits, from NYC, shaped the late '80s straight-edge scene with an inclusive approach. Known for "Start Today," they featured Anthony Civarelli ("Civ"), Arthur Smilios, Luke Abbey, and Walter Schreifels. They disbanded in 1992, but their influence remains.
