Memphis punks the Reatards began in 1997 as the solo project of teen malcontent Jay Reatard; after debuting with the EP Get Real Stupid, he recruited bassist Steve Albundy Reatard and drummer Elvis Wong Reatard to record the full-length follow-up, 1998's aptly titled Teenage Hate. The single "Your So Lewd" followed a year later, as did the LP Grown Up F****d Up. ~ Jason Ankeny
