Social Distortion “Mommy’s Little Monster” 1983

Here’s a band that I’ve lost touch with in recent decades but still retain a love of their music from my youth! I guess I first encountered them in the movie “Another State Of Mind” in the mid-80’s on cable television but they really wouldn’t make a mark in most people’s (including mine) consciousness until their 1990 self titled album. They had major success for an alternative album on a major label well ahead of “Nevermind��!

This is their debut album, well before the country overtones took hold and changed their direction. It’s a solid album that plays much better than I remember. Not my favorite of theirs truth be told. That would be the next album “Prison Bound” (which is their masterpiece).

Social Distortion’s Mike Ness Diagnosed with Tonsil Cancer; Planned Album and Tour Postponed

- “We will get through this,” musician says

Mike Ness, the Social Distortion founder and sole original member of the band, has been diagnosed with stage-one tonsil cancer, leading the group to postpone its planned album and tour while the musician recovers from surgery and undergoes radiation treatment.

Recovering from surgery is “day-by-day process,” Ness said. He is slated to begin radiation in late June.

“We will get through this,” Ness, 61, said in a statement, adding his doctors “expect a full recovery enabling me to live a long and productive life.”

The album and tour will happen - “I promise” - Ness said, “but time is required to heal.”

“I want you all to know that this has opened my eyes to a whole new struggle,” he said. “I know it’s one that many of you or your loved ones have personally endured, and my heart goes out to you - because I now know what it’s like from this heavy experience.”

Social Distortion “Prison Bound” 1988/2015

This fits nicely with yesterday’s pull! Right here. This one. In my mind the best thing they’ve done.

Mike Ness had apparently spent some time in lock up since the previous album and must’ve watched a whole lot of spaghetti westerns while there. Because that spaghetti western sound is all over this record. I can’t think of another “punk rock” record that sounds anything like this from the time. Accidental perfection. They’d dial back that weirdness on future releases and hit the big time for awhile. I remember my freshman year of college I had a minority studies class at 6:30 am and afterwards I’d head to the student commons to have breakfast. At 7:50 exactly (or around that time) every weekday during that quarter MTV would play the video for “Bad Luck”. It was a good song but it was just a tad too generic sounding. They’d lost some of their bite. Fortunately it’s still here in spades on “Prison Bound”!
