The band gigged in L.A. for a bit, released a single, then temporarily disappeared. They reappeared in '81 with a new lead singer (Milo Auckerman), a new LP (<I>Milo Goes to College</I>), and a new, poppier sound, filled with self-effacing, goofy lyrics about girls, parents, and junk food. Auckerman then left the band to attend college -- hence the album title -- and drummer Bill Stevenson headed off to join Black Flag.
