100 Flowers

Location: Los Angeles

Active: 1981 – 1983

Guitarist Kjehl Johansen with Kevin Barrett and John Jones co-founded punk band Urinals in 1978. They renamed as 100 Flowers (a reference to the Maoist campaign in 1950s China) in 1981 to signify a departure from their punk approach and went to a more progressive and post punk direction. They released two albums, one EP and appeared on the classic 1981 ‘Hell Comes To Your House’ deathrock-punk compilation album. After the Urinals reformed in 1996, they also put out a new album as 100 Flowers in 2019.
