The Adicts - are a British punk rock quartet founded in Ipswich, Suffolk, England, in the late '70s by lead singer Monkey (Keith Warren), guitarist Pete Davidson, bassist Mel Ellis, and drummer Kid Dee (Michael Davison). The group affected the look of the "droogs" in the film A Clockwork Orange. Largely independent record makers, they nevertheless made the British charts with their second album, Sound of Music, in 1982, and the single "Bad Boy" in 1983. |

Lastanual - in the Chinese year of the Dragon (2000) a band was formed that would change the face of the Chicago punk scene ever after. Forged through meticulous attention to detail and musical courage, this band of do-gooders burst like an evil mist upon the scourge that is bad music. Deep in the depths of the Fireside bowl, a new band is honing their skills, berating the unsuspecting with frenetic guitars, thundering bass and pounding drums. The masses who witness the spectacle that is a Last Annual performance are consistently electrified by the sheer presence of the band on stage. 5 singers, croaking their harmonies to the skies, leap recklessly as their melodies conquer the unsuspecting. |

Sluggo - founded by four suburban youths in 1983, Sluggo ambushed the unsuspecting Cincinnati music scene with its brand of fast, loud, straight-edged hardcore influenced primarily by the Dischord bands from Washington, D.C. The Cincinnati scene had several great punk bands around (Musical Suicide, SS-20, The Edge, Snare and The Idiots, and others), but Sluggo stood apart by being younger, appearing more clean-cut, and playing much tighter than any of their older counterparts.
The first line-up of Sluggo recorded and released an eight-song, seven-inch record (titled Contradiction EP), which they organized themselves. It was well received in the national punk press and fanzine network and even garnered some airplay on college radio stations througout the United States and Europe. Locally, Sluggo gained notoriety for being the first band to make no apologies for releasing a relentlessly thrashing record. Legendary disk jockey Handsome Clem Carpenter regularly featured the Contradiction EP on his weekly punk show, Search and Destroy, on WAIF in Cincinnati.
As members changed and the musical interests of the members evolved, Sluggo moved away from the thrash sound of D.C. toward the metallic appeal of Motorhead. This direction was an appropriate one, as guitarist Chris Donnelly had matured into an accomplished lead player. In their later days, singer Julian Bevan, having completely overcome his initial shyness, put on an extraordinary show by leaping around the stage with a sweaty devillock obscuring his growly face while Donnelly displayed his virtuosic guitar work. |
