Biography
The Vandals are a Huntington Beach punk band formed in 1980, long punk's resident jokers. After a chaotic first decade, the line-up of Joe Escalante, Dave Quackenbush, Warren Fitzgerald and Josh Freese settled in 1990 and has not changed since, recording 'Live Fast, Diarrhea' and 'Hitler Bad, Vandals Good' for #Nitro Records# and, later, Escalante's own #Kung Fu Records#. Their humour-first approach has never wavered.
