Agent Orange

Well, we've certainly come a long way since 1979. And we will most certainly not delve into any kind of bizarre correlations between the melting surf-guitar-driven punk rock of the Placentia, California-based band Agent Orange, and that happy, dioxin-filled defoliant that made many an uncle crazy. But it's always nice...

Well, we've certainly come a long way since 1979. And we will most certainly not delve into any kind of bizarre correlations between the melting surf-guitar-driven punk rock of the Placentia, California-based band Agent Orange, and that happy, dioxin-filled defoliant that made many an uncle crazy. But it's always nice that these long-running punks make it to South Florida whenever they hit the road. In almost 30 years of influencing hundreds of bands, Agent Orange has always maintained a fervent, global fan base. Mike Palm's guitar work is distinctive and has evolved over the years, and this time around, the rhythm section is helmed by veteran drummer Dusty Watson and bassist Perry Giordano. Agent Orange never disappoints. Bring your uncle.
