They Say That (Everything's Alright) / Getting Nowhere Fast

The Zeros is a pioneer punk rock band formed in 1976 in Chula Vista, California. Comparisons with The Ramones are often made when describing the energetic and fierce guitar driven sound of the group.

After a 2-year gap, following their two first singles on Greg Shaw’s very own Bomp! Records, the band released this third 45 on Test Tube Records.

‘They Say That (Everything’s Alright)’ is a fabulous song by Hector Peñalosa. “Getting Nowhere Fast” is another classic by Javier Escovedo. In spite of the excellence of these two tracks, The Zeros lost the momentum generated by the first two singles, leaving the third as an afterthought. Soon after, the band broke up.
