Since his death, his mother received the Germs’ album and merchandise royalties, thanks to Darby’s deal with Bug Records that was drafted a few months prior to his death. Crash’s mother, Faith Ardelan Baker (February 28, 1922 – May 31, 2009), died in Los Angeles. Up until her death, she was convinced that her son’s death was from an accidental overdose and not a suicide. His sister, Faith Jr., died of cancer in 2006 in Los Angeles.

All of this resulted in the band being banned from nearly every rock club in Los Angeles, which they nevertheless managed to avoid by playing under the alias G.I. (standing for “Germs Incognito”). By the point in which they were filmed for The Decline of Western Civilization, in late 1979, director Spheeris had to rent a soundstage called Cherrywood Studios in California in order for them to play a show outside of the club circuit from which they had been largely blacklisted.

On December 3, 1980, an over-sold Starwood hosted a final live show of the reunited Germs, including drummer Don Bolles. Crash committed suicide by intentional heroin overdose on December 7, 1980, in a house in the Mid-Wilshire section of Hollywood, California. According to SPIN magazine, apocryphal lore has Crash attempting to write “Here Lies Darby Crash” on the wall as he lay dying, but not finishing. In reality, he wrote a short note to Darby Crash Band bassist David “Bosco” Danford that stated “My life, my leather, my love goes to Bosco.”

Beahm said to a friend: “Acid took two years of my life. I don’t remember anything.”

The Germs were captured famously in Penelope Spheeris’ 1981 film The Decline of Western Civilization.
