This band featured some members who had been involved
in the Los Angeles Punk scene since the beginning. The line up is: Shannon
Wilhelm - vocals, Mary Bat-Thing - vocals (pre-45 Grave), Tiffany
Kennedy - keyboard , Tracy Lea - guitar (pre-Red Cross), Alice
Armendariz - bass (ex-Bags), Elissa Bello - drums (ex-Go Go's). They
never released any records and weren't around for very long. But this
live show and a couple videos exist to prove the band once existed. This
is from a radio broadcast and the sound quality is excellent.

Thanks a lot for this one ! Would you mind reuploading it please ? I'm very very late to the party and the link is now dead. But good quality Castration Squad is so rare it would be such a shame to miss this.
