Title: The Germs – (GI)
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1979, Rock, Hardcore Punk, Los Angeles, CA
Condition: Mint

Cultural Facts:

  1. Studio Lore: Joan Jett produced by brute focus—getting usable takes out of a band famous for onstage collapse, essentially turning chaos into a printable document.

  2. Media Narrative: Darby Crash treated fame like performance art; the “five-year plan” wasn’t press copy, it was a self-authored myth he fed to journalists.

  3. Scene Ecology: The Germs’ real legacy is the network they seeded—Masque-era gigs, “Germ” identity culture, and a blueprint for LA hardcore as social tribe.
