The record
Title: Angry Samoans – Back From Samoa
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1982, Rock, Hardcore Punk, Los Angeles, California
Condition: New
Cultural Facts:
-
Scene Ecology: Pure early L.A. hardcore infrastructure: backyard flyers, tiny rooms, and bands sharing bills through friend networks, not booking agents.
-
Media Narrative: Their shock-humor lyrics made them a target for censorship and scene arguments, splitting punks over what “counts” as satire.
-
Personal Struggle: Mike Saunders has described the grind of balancing work and survival with the band, treating punk as an escape from dead-end adulthood.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
