Outside of The Clash. And The Sex Pistols. There was never a lot of love for the UK. UK punk. Specifically.
The preference was always Stateside.
Sure. The Exploited. The Damned. UK Subs. Subhumans. Known quantities. But a need to purchase?
Around the turn of the century. The decision was made to re-examine the music. Of the era.
I emailed Jamie. He. Being more "punk." Less "hardcore." Crust? Fitting.
"What are some older UK punk bands I should check out?"
"Cock Sparrer. Sham 69. Stiff Little Fingers."
Stiff Little Fingers - Nobody's Heroes. Acquired on eBay. Imagine my surprise. Hailing from Northern Ireland.
