Info:
Social Distortion was formed in late 1978 by frontman Mike Ness, inspired by British punk bands and also by older acts such as The Rolling Stones. The original lineup consisted of Ness on lead guitar, Rikk and Frank Agnew on guitars, and Casey Royer on drums. Ness met Dennis Danell,
who was a year older, in high school and insisted he join the band on
bass guitar even though Danell had never played an instrument before.
When Danell was brought in, Frank, Rikk, and Casey left to join The Adolescents.
Mike and Dennis remained the only constant members for the next two
decades with bass and drum members changing every few years. The
Adolescents song "Kids of the Black Hole" and Social Distortion song
"The Playpen" chronicled this period of the band's history.
