The Exploited

The Exploited are a seminal rock band from the second wave of U.K. punk rock. In their early years they formed an integral part of the anarchist movement, though their later albums (from 1987 on) are considered to be crossover thrash. Formed in early 1980 in Edinburgh by ex soldier Wattie Buchan, they signed to Secret Records in March 1981 and released debut Ep army life. The influential album Punk's Not Dead followed the same year. Despite seemingly constant line-up changes since their inception, the band has managed to maintain, develop, and evolve a highly influential style of punk.

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.

Resistance 77

The band was formed in 1979. The original 5 band members were: - Ian 'Oddy' Hodson Vocals Kieron Egan Vocals Guy Naylor Guitar Gary Naylor Drums Mick Clarke Bass Band names were discussed and originally 'The Anti Heroes' was chosen, which at a later date was changed to Resistance 77. We decided on the name Resistance 77 because we were playing a style of music more associated with '77 than with the stuff at that time which was thrashier.
