Like an earthquake, an explosion of underground counter-culture youth bands erupted in Los Angeles during the summer of 1977. Seemingly from out of nowhere, L. A. became the epicenter for arrogant, anti-industry, full of attitude rock bands like the Zero's, the Dils, the Germs, the Dickies, the Weirdos, the Plugs, the Flesh Eaters and X. It was the birth of a scene that captured the attention of both the international media and young aspiring rockers worldwide. L. A. New Wave!

All choice stuff and all in keeping with the Dickies unmistakable and unique sound and attitude --- humorous punk, based on images of cult b-movies, junk culture, phallic humor and all played at twice the speed of light!!! Indeed they are the "West Coast Ramones" - but bathed in the L. A. and San Fernando Valley mind set. 25 tracks all digitally remastered. Include...
