(that's supposed to be "we become one" -- for some reason it's coming up as "stand up")

Why does that first video psych me out with a cover image from In the Garden?

I'll take In the Garden over the Avengers. But just about anything is better than We Too Are One.

Okay, nothing beats "We're a Winner," but "We Are the One" stands up well, and I like its lyrics better with time.

The riff at the beginning of "We Are the One" has a guitar sound common to California punk. Were the Avengers first with this or did they get that sound from someone else?

The Avengers were first. Seeing them is what inspired Jello to start Dead Kennedys.
