L7 - L7 (1988) - New Vinyl Lp 2018 Epitaph 'Indie Exclusive' Reissue on Clear Vinyl - Rock / Grunge

Coming up in the late 80’s in Los Angeles’ Silver Lake/Echo Park scene, L7 drew from a diverse set of influences: Motörhead, Ramones, feminist Bay Area punks Frightwig. They made fun of the Sunset Strip’s bouffants and machismo while playing the same kinds of flying-V guitars. They also had no patience for grunge’s gloom, even though their friends were in bands like Nirvana, Mudhoney and Soundgarden. A raunchy punk stampede that predated both grunge and girlpower, L7's self-titled debut is proof that chicks can rock just as hard, if not harder, as any guy. A surplus of rockin' punk/metal guitars and driving drums equal 11 tracks to remind yourself that it¹s ok to bang your head, HARD. “L7” is the band’s debut album, released in 1988 and produced by Brett Gurewitz.
