简介: After The Germs' snarling debut "Forming" helped usher in the West Coast punk scene in 1977, singer Darby Crash, guitarist Pat Smear, bassist Lorna Doom, and drummer Don Bolles returned two years later with (GI), an unrelenting onslaught of primal pounding and verbal venom that influenced a generation. But it was the group's unhinged concerts -- often teetering on the brink of riotous bedlam -- that elevated The Germs to exalted status among punk rockers.
Until now, only a few examples of the group's live shows have surfaced, adding to The Germs' mystique. Rhino Handmade presents a live album that features, for the first time ever, The Germs' legendary final concert with Crash. LIVE AT THE STARWOOD: DECEMBER 3, 1980 features unique packaging that has a genuine DIY feel including black and white liner notes folded and stapled to resemble a punk fanzine, a reproduction of the handwritten set list, and an 8½" x 11" replica of the original poster for the show.
