Editor's review
When a vicious early-'80s punk band breaks up on New Years Day, it's fair to wonder about the previous evening's activities. We're not going to ask. Suffice it to say it's our loss: the seminal group's exploding riffs and charging vocal attacks anticipate early punk's morph into guttural hardcore.
Biography
The Fix broke up on New Years Day 1982 in San Francisco after a final unscheduled show with the Effigies, Dead Kennedys, Flipper, and Anti-Pasti. (And you're saying to yourself, I wish my band could have broken up like that.) Steve and Mike went on to form Blight with Tesco Vee of The Meatmen. Within a period of 22 odd months or so, The fix came blazing--pillaging your town, exploding and burning fast before you knew what hit you. And it's only now that you remember how awesome 1981 was--or at least blessed now with the hearsay and memories because you couldn't have been there to witness The Fix.
