About X
X were far from the first punk rock band in Los Angeles, but in a very real way, they were the ones who put the L.A. punk scene on the map. Their melding of punk's speed and ferocity with the sounds of rockabilly, blues, and country would prove to be wildly influential in the years that followed, as were the off-kilter harmonies of John Doe and Exene Cervenka. While they never enjoyed the commercial breakthrough that many believed was their due, 1980's Los Angeles and 1981's Wild Gift were critical favorites that sold remarkably well by small-label standards. They moved to a major label with their unique sound and integrity intact on 1982's superb Under the Big Black Sun. Following 1987's underrated See How We Are and the 1993 reunion album Hey Zeus!, fans would have to wait until 2020 for Alphabetland, which was met with immediate and widespread acclaim.
