Editing Guttermouth (section)

===First album===
By the summer of 1989, Guttermouth began performing in Huntington Beach and Orange County, building a small but enthusiastic local following. Their music was heavily influenced by the Los Angeles and Orange County punk rock scenes of the 1980s which included bands like [[the Adolescents]], [[The Vandals]], [[Social Distortion]], [[Fear (band)|Fear]], the [[Descendents (band)|Descendents]], [[Angry Samoans]], [[Bad Religion]] and [[Black Flag (band)|Black Flag]].<ref name="pharmacy"/> From these influences Guttermouth developed their own style of fast punk tempos with humorously sarcastic and offensive lyrics coupled with equally outrageous and offensive behavior, developing a reputation for chaotic live shows.<ref name="pharmacy"/> In 1991, they were approached by local record label [[Dr. Strange Records|Dr. Strange]] about putting out an album, and entered [[Westbeach Recorders]] to record and release their first 7-inch record, ''[[Puke (Guttermouth album)|Puke]]''. Later that year they released another 7-inch, ''[[Balls (Guttermouth album)|Balls]]'', and finally their first LP, aptly titled ''[[Full Length LP]]''.<ref name="pharmacy"/>

''Full Length'' proved to be a success for the band, expanding their fan base and giving them opportunities to perform throughout southern California alongside other popular punk rock bands. The album was soon re-released in [[CD]] format by Dr. Strange and an animated [[music video]] was made for the song "1, 2, 3…Slam!" to be played on local punk rock and skateboarding video programs. The band continued to play locally, developing friendships with fellow Orange County punk bands such as [[The Offspring]] and the Vandals. They played a show opening for the Vandals at the Ice House in [[Fullerton, California|Fullerton]] which was filmed for the Vandals live album ''[[Sweatin' to the Oldies: The Vandals Live|Sweatin’ to the Oldies]]''. Guttermouth continued to promote ''Full Length'' over the next few years and also released 7-inch vinyl singles for the new songs "Veggicide" and "P.C." In 1993, they recorded the 7-inch EP ''[[11oz.]]'' as the first release put out by newly formed label [[Hopeless Records]].
