Subhumans are an English punk rock band formed in the Warminster and Melksham area of Wiltshire in 1980.[1][2] Singer Dick Lucas had formerly been in another local band, The Mental, and other members had been in The Stupid Humans. The band's musical style is typically classified as hardcore punk or anarcho-punk.[3]

Subhumans The Day The Country Died No No I don't believe in Jesus Christ My mother died of cancer when I was 5 No I don't believe in religion I was forced to go to church, I wasn't told why No I don't believe in the police force Police brutality isn't a dream No I don't believe in the system cos Nothing it does makes sense to me Don't worry you. 'The Day The Country Died' is the long-awaited follow-up to Ian Glasper's successful 'Burning Britain', and sees the author exploring in minute detail the obscure, esoteric, UK anarcho-punk scene of the early Eighties. The Day the Country Died is the debut studio album by the English anarcho-punk band the Subhumans. The album was recorded in five days in June 1982 and was released in January 1983 through Spiderleg Records. It was later re-released on Bluurg, the band's own record label. The album is influenced by the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell. The record everybody slams today. It was my first introduction to Subhumans in their first incarnation. I loved that record and wondered what happened with No Wishes. Why such a blah record. This was how I felt in 1987. I still have my album. And since then I have heard, through the interweb, all of the Subhumans stuff. From the earliest to.

History[edit]

The band was formed in 1980, guitarist Bruce and drummer Andy were accompanied by original bassist Grant, previously from the band Audio Torture. The band were initially known as Superhumans due to insistence from Bruce's mother, but changed their name to Subhumans when Dick joined the band later the same year. [4] By the end of 1980, drummer Andy had left and was replaced by Trotsky.

The band released a demo in 1981. It was heard by members of the band Flux of Pink Indians, after being sent to them by Graham Burnett of the New Crimesfanzine, and the band were so impressed that they offered Subhumans a record release on their newly founded label Spiderleg Records. [5] The group's debut EP, Demolition War, subsequently appeared on Spiderleg in December 1981.

Subhumans released two more EPs in 1982, Reasons for Existence and Religious Wars, as well as founding their own record label, Bluurg Records. Although initially focused on releasing cassette recordings, the label produced its first vinyl release with the 'Wessex '82' EP, which featured one track each by the Subhumans ('No Thanks'), The Pagans, Organised Chaos and The A-Heads.

The band's first LP, The Day The Country Died was released in 1983 on Spiderleg Records. Generally considered a classic of the anarcho-punk era, it was followed shortly after by the Evolution EP, which was also the band's first record (bar the 'Wessex '82' split) to be released on their own label. Kodak esp 7250 software download. The band released Time Flies.. But Aeroplanes Crash later that same year, a 12' EP consisting of both studio and live tracks - the live tracks taken from an aborted live album. Towards the end of the year, original bassist Grant left the band (shortly before the recording sessions for their second album) and was replaced by Phil of the Pagans. (Bruce Treasure, Andy Gale, Grant Jackson, Trotsky and Phil Bryant all attended Kingdown Comprehensive school in Warminster, England).

The following year, the band released their second album, From the Cradle to the Grave. The release demonstrated a notable musical development for the band, particularly with the title track - a progressive piece that took up the album's entire second side, and ran for almost 17 minutes. It was followed by one last EP, Rats, in January 1985, and the EP-LP release - a compilation album comprising the band's first four EP's.

Subhumans broke up at the end of 1985, after recording their third album Worlds Apart, with musical differences being cited as the main reason for the split. A final 12' record (1986's 29:29 Split Vision) was also recorded and released posthumously, and demonstrated just how far the band's musical leanings had altered from their initial hardcore punk stylings. Lucas subsequently joined Culture Shock in 1986 and then formed the political ska punk band Citizen Fish in 1990. A second Subhumans compilation album was released the same year (Time Flies + Rats), which comprised the two later EP's absent from the EP-LP release.

Subhumans had a brief reunion for a couple of shows in about 1991, and a more comprehensive return in 1998, which included UK and USconcerts. This resulted in a semi-permanent return of the band as a touring entity, including at least two major tours of North America in the twenty-first century – the Live in a Dive recording released on Fat Wreck Chords being a product of the second tour recorded at the Showcase Theatre in Corona, CA.[6] The band also recorded and released a new EP, Unfinished Business, in 1998, which consists of previously unreleased songs from the band's original incarnation.

Since then, Subhumans have recorded a new album, Internal Riot,[7] and self-released it on Bluurg Records in September 2007. They toured in Europe throughout 2007, and a month-long U.S. tour began on 24 August that year. They have maintained a live presence ever since.

Country

For nearly a decade, Subhumans continued to make multiple live performances across the UK and the US, but in September 13th, 2019, Subhumans released a new album titled Crisis Point,[8][9] which was the band's first album in 12 years. The album covered several modern-day issues while surprisingly moving back into the anarcho-punk genre, with its messages and general punk tune in the song.
