Rob Miller (The Baron) is still a huge influence on me as a bassist and a singer. Rrrrespec.

i saw them at the gateshead station i'm sure...anyone confirm? I am sure they did the Arise! album set just before the album was released.

@iamsime Yep,can you help you out with this one they played GATESHEAD STATION 2.3.85,I've got an audio recording of it somewhere,its quite possible they played here on other dates aswell but this is the only one I can confirm

It gets better,,,

We are swimming in the lunar sea

Drowning in insanity

Look to the shore you will see

Your leaders were lying

Nobody's driving!

[redpunk1]

Is "It gets Better" the song title?? I'm a real expert on Amebix aren't I?? I'm actually more into them now than I was in the 80's.

[mmarkanthony]

No I think that the first one is nobody's driving. The second song is axeman from the arise lp. Cracking stuff!!

i love that first line, "i awoke with a sweat, from the American dream"
