The Joneses were a glam punk band from Hollywood formed by Jeff Drake, joined by Paul Mars Marmorstein and Scott Franklin of Mau Maus. Other members like Ron Emory and Greg Kuehn of TSOL, David Thum of Funeral and Tex & The Horseheads, Johnie Sage (also a former Mau Mau) a fill in guitarist in 1982’s Christian Death also rotated in.
They had a particular dark streak in songs like Graveyard Rock (featured on the ‘Someone’s Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In’ compilation) and a fun, snarky attitude that dripped rock’n’roll in the footsteps of New York Dolls and The Ramones.
