Youth Gone Mad

Youth Gone Mad is a post-punk band founded in California in 1980 by Paul "ENA" Kostabi (also of White Zombie and Psychotica). Youth Gone Mad signed onto the Posh Boy Records roster, scored a minor radio hit with "Oki Dogs" in 1981, and played with bands such as Black Flag, Caustic Cause, The Mentors, The Stains, Fear, and others. The band migrated east to New York, and went through numerous line-up changes along the way. At one time or another, the ranks included Dee Dee Ramone and Joey Ramone.
