Short Bus Window Lickers

The Short Bus Window Lickers started up in 2000 when they kicked a DJ off the stage in the Button Factory squat in Brixton (south London) and played their then only 10 minute set 3 times in a row introducing the London punkscene to their fast and furious scumbag hardcore punk. They started playing gigs in and around London almost every weekend at benefits, squats, pubs and clubs and built up a reputation of being fast, tight as fuck, always up for playing and most importantly: havin a sticky sense of humour.
