1 | * DiedDuringProduction: Darby Crash died in December 1980 (notably, the day before John Lennon was murdered), and Lorna Doom died in early 2019. |
2 | * ColbertBump: ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'' introduced the band to a new generation of listeners by featuring "Lexicon Devil" on its Channel X radio station. |
3 | * HeAlsoDid: Pat Smear went on to play with Music/{{Nirvana}} and Music/FooFighters. |
4 | * PromotedFanboy: Drummer Don Bolles famously drove from Arizona to audition for the band; fortunately for him, he was better than the others who auditioned before him and was hired. |
5 | * ShortLivedBigImpact: For a band that only existed for three years and never left Los Angeles on tour, they've still got a pretty decent fanbase. The reunion, movie, and their performance in ''The Decline of Western Civilization'' helped. |
6 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
7 | ** Music/TheGerms had auditioned (along with several other bands) to be in the movie ''Film/UpInSmoke''. However, due to their chaotic live shows and an unscripted food fight that broke out during their set, they were the only band that played that never received a call back. |
8 | ** One of the early members of The Germs was (or would have been, if she hadn't been laid low by mononucleosis for a year) Music/BelindaCarlisle, who went on to front Music/TheGoGos. |
