Junkyard

Junkyard is a hard rock/sleaze rock band formed in 1987 in Los Angeles, with members formerly in Minor Threat, The Necros, and Dag Nasty. The band has often drawn comparisons with Guns N' Roses (which, like Junkyard, signed with Geffen Records). The original line-up of the band was David Roach (vocals), Chris Gates (guitar, ex-Big Boys), Clay Anthony (bass) and Patrick Muzingo (drums). Brian Baker (guitar, ex-Dag Nasty/Minor Threat), joined the band just prior to the recording of the first album Although the band was heavily influenced by Southern rock, Baker had told Sounds, "I hate the concept. I like that music but I'm not into the rebel flag or the throwing up in your pickup truck". The band was signed by Geffen Records in January...
