We're slackers...

We don't update The P5 every day like we used to. So when we slack off, just use the search box up there on the right. Yeah, the red box, that's it. Search The P5 Archives. You'll be glad you did.

Anti-Nowhere League - Streets Of London

|

On this date in 1981, Anti-Nowhere League released their debut single, "Streets Of London". It was backed by "So What". The A side appeared on their debut album, We Are...The League. The B side was a non-LP track which was added as a bonus track when the album was re-released on CD. In 1982, the London offices housing the band's new single were raided resulting in the confiscation of over 10,000 copies. The target wasn't the A-side. It was the B-side which was labeled as having obscene lyrics. The records would later be destroyed under the Obscene Publications Act. The Kent, England punk band disbanded in 1989, only to re-form in 1992 and be somewhat active on the recording and performance fronts.
