Jake Rudh zeroes in on one vibrant city within the two scenes: Los Angeles. L.A. may not have churned out legendary acts that have stood the test of time like London and New York, but it definitely held its own, and we're going to be visiting both the underground and the pop-chart-friendly acts this week, from X, Black Flag, Descendants, to the Motels, the Bangles and the Go-Go's and so much more. Add in a few palm trees, and there's truly something for everyone.
