Hailing from the late-'70s underground of Los Angeles, The Urinals were often called \"the American Wire\" for their graceful tension, wild energy and trademark brevity. Recorded with a sole microphone and guitar \/ bass running through a single amplifier, their debut 1978 EP defies its limitations while defining The Urinals' unique aesthetic.

The Urinals' third 7-inch, from 1980, demonstrates the group's increased technical proficiency and fuller production that the same members would later bring to their next project, 100 Flowers, under which moniker they produced an outstanding album (also available on Superior Viaduct). \"Sex\" and \"Go Away Girl\" (penned by David Nolte of The Last) are propulsive, lo-fi statements that lay waste to the A-side in under three minutes - classic Urinals form.
