The Weirdos were one of the first bands to make a mark in the vital Los Angeles punk rock scene in the 1970s, and along with the Screamers, they were widely regarded as the best group to emerge from L.A.'s first wave of punk. Led by brothers John Denney (vocals) and Dix Denney (guitar), the Weirdos were fast, loud and manic, and had tunes as strong as their energy, generating a potent blur of sound well-documented on 1991's Weird World, Vol. 1, a collection of singles sides and EP tracks. The Weirdos broke up before they could make an album, but they got back together in 1990 to cut a fine reunion LP, Condor, and lasting interest in the group prompted the release of an archival live album in 2023, Live! At the Club Azteca 1978.
Members of The Weirdos include, or have included, Cliff Martinez, Zander Schloss, John Denney, and David Trout.
