X: Beyond the Valley of the Doors
Sylvie Simmons, Sounds, 28 June 1980
HOLLYWOOD PUNK. Sounds about as real and desirable as cocktail-lounge muzak. If there's anything genuine or worthwhile in there it certainly isn't easy to find. Which is probably why X and the few bands like them in Los Angeles haven't been signed to the proverbial Big Record Deal like just about every other local band who rode in on the wave they helped start over here.
Total word count of piece: 1965
