How can you not like the LA punk scene? The LA punk scene was  awesome!  So 
many great bands came up with so many different sounds.

This  reminds me of when I saw the Lurkers...they didn't play..they were 
too pissed  and just stood there like twats.
I never really enjoyed the 2nd wave punk  thing, nor the LA punk 
scene...the latter was probably just cultural, the  former because 99% of it was just 
performing monkeys.

FEAR was a favorite growing up. They were erratic, incomprehensible,  
unpredictable, shambolic, frequently idiotic and even more frequently a  powerful 
expression of everything I loved about music at the  time.

Kind of like...KJ?

I loved how they were  always teetering just on the edge of falling apart. 
Growing up I would hear  stories of the Replacements at Duffy's in Mpls (and 
opening for KJ)  or Kirby's in Moorhead, MN (next to Fargo, ND). The 
consensus was always  the same: either you saw the greatest rock'n'roll show ever, 
or you saw a  bunch of drunk fools play KISS covers for 20 minutes before 
falling off the  stage.

I loved FEAR's first two albums. Awesome live band as well.

Can I ask what appealed to you about them?
Worse than the Expoited,  to me.
