Conservatives - Nervous



  Today I'm posting a song that I only heard for the first time a couple of weeks ago even though it's over 30 years old. Some of you might know it from the Hell Comes To Your House compilation (where it appears in a one-two whammy with Just Cuz) which came out in 1981 and featured the likes of Social Distortion, Red Cross and 45 Grave.

  The track I was impressed with was a sub one minute burst of hardcore punk that deserves to be better known than it is. As far as I'm aware, The Conservatives were a Long Beach band who were active in the early 80's and aside from a few appearances on compilations didn't seem particularly prolific.

  Not much info but when the song's this good, who cares. This is Nervous.....

  2. cheers. i'm guessing quite a few people have heard of them given it was on what seems to be such a highly rated compilation but hopefully now a few more do to

  3. A lot of good thrash punk came out of L.A.’s suburbs like Long Beach and OC, it just never got the attention it deserved (IMO).
