Dangerhouse was one of the first independent labels to document the burgeoning West Coast punk rock scene. It was a short-lived 
enterprise, starting in 1977 and shuttering by the end of 1980, but nonetheless left an indelible mark on the punk rock history of California.
Established by David Brown and Pat “Rand” Garrett, both members of the punk rock band Black Randy and the Metrosquad, the company operated on a limited budget, supported by the more conventional typesetting and aerospace jobs of the founders. Black Randy himself got a day job in telemarketing and joined the effort as a business partner.
Despite its scarce resources, Dangerhouse was notable for its production quality. They released records by many of California’s finest first-wave punk bands, including X, Avengers, the Weirdos, and the Dils.
