Weird World, Vol. 1

Weird World, Vol. 1

Though they never released any studio albums before their first split, the Weirdos were one of the most vibrant groups of the late-'70s L.A. punk explosion, as this compilation of their riotous early singles demonstrates with panache. Motormouth vocalist John Denney had a knack for sounding both unhinged and cheeky, making the "Helium Bar" seem like a bizarre must-visit, while the soaring riffs of guitarist Dix Denney turned tracks like "We Got the Neutron Bomb" and "Happy People" into uproarious sticky-floor anthems.
