The Vandals

Pop punk four-piece, The Vandals, formed in Huntington Beach, California in 1980. The group prefers to write comical songs with lyrics that mock anarchy or discuss going to Disneyland while on LSD, instead of lyrics focused on serious topics, like most punk bands of its time. One of the first bands to be signed to legendary punk record label Epitaph, The Vandals quickly established itself nationwide, through connections that members made with prominent television networks and popular bands and actors. While the members have since gone on to pursue other goals, the founders still reunite to perform at festivals like Vans Warped Tour.
