An indirect consequence of Joy Division's success is that it affected some other Factory-signed artists. The label was keen to release Manchester reggae outfit X-O-Dus' debut single but, despite being recorded in a single day in June 1979, the See Them A Come/ English Black Boys 12" took almost a year to appear. Finally, in April 1980, after Dennis Bovell's lengthy mixing and artwork delays, it emerged...

Unlike Penelope Spheeris' like-minded cult LA punk flick The Decline Of Western Civilization, X's biopic, The Unheard Music, was initially released to precious little fanfare in 1986. Why that should be remains a mystery, as it's not only one of the most compelling rock docs out there but, as a viscerally intimate portrait of the LA punk/hardcore explosion, it's second to none...

Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti have had an eventful year with the Throbbing Gristle reissues and Transverse set, but these two projects, started before Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson's unexpected death in November 2010, could mark their most visionary work yet. With technology making electronic music ever easier, it's like the pair strove to mount a TG-style offensive in honour of their old friend to bring home the two projects they started...

In terms of production, songwriting and pure distillation of the band's aesthetic, Under the Big Black Sun is the best X record. Los Angeles is darker and Wild Gift punker, but Sun captures X just as they began to integrate country and rockabilly into their sound. It's the end of one era and the beginning of another. Big Black Sun is a glorious record. When I said Los Angeles was darker, I didn't mean Sun was light fare, though...

Exene Cervenka. John Doe. Billy Zoom. DJ Bonebrake. If there was any justice in the world there would be shirts bearing the names of these four people, who have collectively produced some of the finest and most long lasting music over the last 30 years, much like the legacy left by the Ramones...

While they were part of the original '77 run of punk bands, seminal California act X couldn't get a proper record deal until Slash Records came along and released Los Angeles in 1980. The one upside to this delay: By the time they hooked up with Slash, X started dropping records at a rapid clip. Just over a year after Los Angeles came out, X was back again the fantastic Wild Gift. Los Angeles is where you go if you want to hear X at its most raw...

A collection of X's first five albums nattily shows their progression from snarling punks toward an altogether more atmospheric outfit who nonetheless lost none of their stylish anger. First two albums, Los Angeles and Wild Gift, are as gritty as anything released in 1980 and 1981: their tales of the streets and comments on a wider society full of the righteous rage - and wit - that gives the band their superior mark...

X, pillars of the L.A. underground of the late 1970s and early '80s, reconvene for two nights at the House of Blues in celebration of their 25-year anniversary. The original lineup of Exene Cervenka, John Doe, Billy Zoom and D.J. Bonebrake are in fighting form for their hometown crowd, as all the punk, country, blues and rock stops are pulled out: Johny Hit and Run Paulene, In This House That I Call Home, The World's a Mess, It's in My Kiss...
