Surgiu em 1978, quando os colegas de classe Frank Navetta, Tom Lombardo e Bill Stevenson resolveram criar uma banda. O primeiro lançamento foi o melódico surf-pop duplo lado A Ride the Wild/It's a Hectic World. Em 1980 eles acrescentaram um velho colega de escola chamado Milo Aukerman como cantor e reapareceram como uma banda punk, transformando-se em uma das maiores bandas a desenvolver a cena em Los Angeles na época. O primeiro lançamento foi o EP Fat
