Victims Family is a hardcore punk band formed in 1984 in Santa Rosa, California, by bass guitarist Larry Boothroyd and guitarist and vocalist Ralph Spight. Devon VrMeer completed the trio as drummer. Their sound blended punk, heavy metal and jazz, making them difficult to categorize into a single genre. Allmusic says, "Since its inception, the trio has refused to be pigeonholed to any single musical style — incorporating elements of hardcore punk, jazz, funk, hard rock, and noise into its challenging sound". They were known as one of the most musically diverse bands in the San Francisco underground music scene. Over the years, Victims Family went through four drummers and two break-ups. Their name was taken from a piece by the cartoonist B. Kliban.

  • Victims Family is een Amerikaanse band, die in oktober 1984 in Santa Rosa, Californië, werd geformeerd door gitarist Ralph Spight en Larry Boothroyd. Samen met Devon VrMeer begonnen ze een gitaarrock band, die een stijl speelden die zich niet gemakkelijk met één woord liet beschrijven. Toen NoMeansNo-drummer John Wright hun derde album produceerde, kregen ze ook echt grote bekendheid, die in Europa vaak veel groter was dan thuis in Amerika. In 1995 stopte Victims Family op een zeker hoogtepunt. De naam betrok de band van een afbeelding van Bernard Kliban. (nl)

  • I Victims Family sono una band alternative/hardcore punk formata nel 1984 a Santa Rosa, California dal bassista e dal chitarrista e cantante ; il batterista arrivò a completare il gruppo in un secondo momento. Il loro stile fonde sonorità hardcore punk, heavy metal e jazz, rendendo difficile categorizzarli in un singolo genere. Come afferma la All Music Guide, "fin dal loro principio, il trio ha rifiutato di essere classificato in un singolo stile musicale - incorporando elementi di hardcore punk, jazz, funk, hard rock e noise rock nel loro suono"; pertanto, fin dagli esordi il gruppo è stato considerato fra i più originali della scena musicale underground di San Francisco. Negli anni, i Victims Family hanno cambiato quattro batteristi e si sono sciolti due volte. Il nome della band è st (it)
