The Skunks were an Austin, Texas three piece that formed in 1977. They are generally recognized as one of Austin's first punk bands. This was their first single, they released it on their own, (I'm guessing?) Skunks Records. The record cost them $10.00 to record. Before disbanding in 1983, they released: 2 full lengths, a 2, 7" record set Ep, another single and they had a couple tracks on the Live at Raul's comp.
