Artist History Pseudo Star was a punk band from an inner city of Los Angeles, El Monte, CA. they were formed in the heated political environment of Pete Wilson and proposition 187. They were together for 5 years in the late 90's (95-2000). Their music was heavily influenced by such bands as The Clash, Operation Ivy, and Rancid. All members being of Mexican decent they started their first gigs playing benefit shows for local organizations such as Food not Bombs. Their style was a throw back to the socially conscious sounds of early punk rock. Being compared to bands like The Clash with a little Social Distortion thrown in for good measure. But at the time kids were flocking to see bands like blink 182 who preached a completely different view of punk rock. Pseudo Star was a band born too late. After 5 years of constant gigging, playing with such bands as FEAR and Los Infernos, the guys decided to hang it up. These are a few of their songs from their first and only CD on Justified Records.
