strange story to this song.Charlie was seeing a wierd girl and didn't want to go out with her one night so took her round his mates and later UK sub drummer Rabs flat in Clapham.anyway as Harper was out partying the girl slashed her wrists and Rab managed to get her to hospital
@scotsmaninusa How funny because isn't Rabs Fabeith (however you spell it) was the Exploited drummer, right? He ended up doing the Subs' Huntington Beach Album in 85 or 86. I live right down the street from where they took the pics for the album. Rab was a funny ass screwball.
All English punk bands from the 70s sound the same. Don't get me wrong I still like the tunes but come on, really... Oh and cleieven, I would hardly call anything the Subs can play a on guitar a solo.
Played live in our small town here in Norway a good many years ago. Nick was so stoned out of this world he hardly knew where he was, but they still managed to give a decent show, no real solos though :)
Slayer were influenced by these dude, listen to the 'undisputed attitude' album, its full of Punk stuff. Bands like GBH, Discharge, Exploited were as much the beginning of Thrash Metal as any previous Heavy Rock bands.
@eloseddie all them god awful fucking metal bands ripped off punk riffs, this song (in 2 parts) is from their second LP brand new age (1980) , not as good as the first , but better than fucking slayer (It rhymes with gayer). bye !
was in a punk band called Annex uk many years ago,and we supported the subs at cov poly and we did emotional blackmail in our set,crowd went wild, the subs called us "cheeky cants".
there current line up is the best
