**RKL** (Rich Kids on LSD) were a rowdy, influential punk band that burst out of Isla Vista, California, in the early ’80s, blending hardcore speed with thrashy, skate-punk riffs. Known for their chaotic live shows and irreverent energy, they became cult favorites alongside peers like Dead Kennedys and Descendents, carving their name into the West Coast punk scene. Their 1987 album *Rock N Roll Nightmare* remains a gnarly classic, packed with breakneck tracks that defined their signature sound—loud, fast, and unapologetically fun. Over the years, they dropped wild releases like *Reactivate* and *Riches To Rags*, while *Live in a Dive* captures their raucous stage vibe. Though they split in the ’90s, sporadic reunions and reissues keep their scrappy legacy alive for punk fans who like it loud and loose.
