Agent Orange "Living In Darkness" (Cassette, Radiation, 2023)
Adventurous southern California punk trio Agent Orange was the first
band to mix surf rock with punk. The group was formed in 1979 in
Placentia, a small town close to Fullerton and Anaheim, by frontman Mike
Palm on guitar and lead vocals, Steve Soto on bass and Scott Miller on
drums. That early line up recorded the classic version of "Bloodstains"
in 1979 as a demo produced by Daniel R. van Patten (of the group
Berlin). A year later it was included on the seminal Rodney On The Roq
compilation album released by Posh Boy Records. Meanwhile James Levesque
had replaced Steve Soto (Adolescents) and the new line up released
their own self produced and self released 7" ep in 1980. A year later,
the group signed with Robbie Fields' Posh Boy Records for their debut LP
Living In Darkness, co-produced by Fields and former Simpletones
guitarist Jay Lansford. The album was recorded at Brian Elliott's store
front studio in North Hollywood (a few years before Elliott struck gold
writing Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach").
