Product Description

CD Description
On GROUP SEX, the Circle Jerks' second full-length album, the band makes no great changes in its musical style. On the other hand, there really was no need for revision. Keith Morris (also an early vocalist for Black Flag) and his band mates had pretty much hit the nail on the head the first time out (WILD IN THE STREETS, appended to GROUP on some CD editions). The Jerks play the sort of very fast and very snotty punk rock--complete with thin, weedy vocals--that eventually became all the rage with such chart-topping bands as Green Day, the Offspring, and No Doubt.
As their name and the album title would suggest, the Circle Jerks are not a subtle band. "I Just Want Some Skank" and "World Up My Ass" stand as further examples of their in-your-face lewdness. Standout numbers include "Beverly Hills", an extremely pointed attack on the "upper class", and "Paid Vacation", an anti-military song built on Greg Hetson's buzz-saw guitar. In the latter, the introduction and several bridges recall western TV show theme music sped up to 78rpms.

5.0 out of 5 stars The circle pit is where the heart is, 27 Jan 2002
By A Customer
Lets clear one thing up right away. This record is so short (weighing in at 16 minutes) that when it was released,they were afraid people would consider such a short album a rip-off. It would have been their loss. This is a classic Hardcore album. This is archetypal all killer, no filler. Although every track is a winner, the likes of 'Operation' and 'Wasted' just about shade it as prime cuts. You can detect the sounds of various punk forefathers in its midst, yet Circle Jerks retain a snotty, aggressive, frenetic, fast and furious sound that is entirely their own. This is what circle pits were made for. The So-Cal punk scene would be in a sorry state without this record.
