White Light, White Heat, White Trash

Raw, unfiltered, and emotionally charged, Social Distortion’s White Light, White Heat, White Trash is a defining moment in punk rock. Released in 1996, this album delivers a harder, more aggressive sound while keeping Mike Ness’ signature storytelling front and center. Fueled by themes of regret, redemption, and rebellion, this record is one of the most intense and personal works in the band’s catalog.

From the anthemic I Was Wrong to the blistering Don’t Drag Me Down, every track is packed with searing guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and the kind of raw energy that makes punk music timeless. This album strips away any polish, leaving behind nothing but pure, unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll attitude.

Now pressed on high-quality vinyl, White Light, White Heat, White Trash delivers the warmth and depth that analog sound brings—perfect for cranking up and letting loose.
