Burning Image

Location: Bakersfield, California

Active: 1982 – 1987

Moe Adame and Tony Bonanno were in a punk band The Pictures. They recruited Joe Sparks and Paul Burch from local band Public Art before deciding on a new direction with Burning Image. They released the ‘Final Conflict’ single in 1984. They performed with bands like Specimen, Dead Kennedys and Butthole Surfers.

Burning Image is on the ‘Let’s Die’ compilation with Silver Chalice, Flower Leperds, and a solo Patrik Mata (Kommunity FK). Their collected recordings were released on a retrospective album on Alternative Tentacles, titled ‘1983–1987’ in 2004 after reuniting with Jello Biafra. Moe Adame worked on a project called I Viscera until 2002, then reformed Burning Image in 2004 and continues to release new material.
