zonular Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Just saw a post on their fb page from john wright announcing they are retiring. Going to pour one out for one of the greatest punk drum and bass combos Quote
Roland Rock Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Not seen that post, but they have form with hinting/announcing breakups just for a laugh. I hope not - I've seen them as a teen in the early 90s and also in 2015. Superb each time. Punk with substance and creativity. Quote
tonyquipment Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 I hope they are just messing around Seriously one of my if not favourite punk band. Quote
Mr H Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Seems to be legit. Tom announced his departure a couple of weeks back, and Rob is hanging up his filthy bass to be an old father with young kids. Quote

project_c Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Yep, it's true apparently. Sad news but they've been around a lot longer than most. Quote

Lightlyseared Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Great band. I remember hearing them for the first time on Peel and going to Selectadisc the next day to buy "Wrong". At that time they drew as big a crowd as any band from that scene did before Nirvana broke. I was blown away when first I saw them play at Trent Poly - they were tight, loud and played with real swing and dynamics. Quote
