Legal Weapon was an early Southern California punk band, initially comprised of singer Kat Arthur, guitarist Brian Hansen, drummer Charlie Vartanian and bassist Patricia Morrison. The band's early full-length albums Death of Innocence (for which their lineup included Steve Soto and Frank Agnew of The Adolescents) and Your Weapon were well-received, its later efforts less so. Arthur, with her powerful voice, has been called "the Janis Joplin of punk".
