February 7, 1988, at legendary Anthrax Club. The power trio's original lineup was Mike Palm on guitar and vocals, Steve Soto on bass, and Scott Miller on drums.[3] They first gained attention for their song “Bloodstains,“[3] originally appearing on their self-released debut 7“ EP in 1980. A demo version of the song was given to Rodney Bingenheimer, a DJ at Pasadena radio station KROQ-FM, who placed it on his seminal 1980 compilation album, Rodney on the ROQ, on Posh Boy Records. With James Levesque on bass (replacing Soto, who left to form the Adolescents[4]), the group recorded their debut Living In Darkness album with Brian Elliot, best known for composing Madonna’s hit “Papa Don’t Preach.“ The record was released by Posh Boy in November 1981 and included another, newer version of “Bloodstains“ (later used in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4). A 12“ EP, Bitchin' Summer, followed in 1982 on Posh Boy.
