Yeah, great stuff. For some reason reminded me to look out some SAHB stuff too.

Their lesbian stage act was novel at least

They came to visit a company where I worked once (we supplied them with bass amps).

Just missed 2 of them coming out of the gents as I walked in.

When you described it, I thought it was S Club 7.

Great band. I saw them at the Bristol Locarno in 1981.
Didn't see any cars being smashed up or simulated sex but the lead singer assumed a number of different outrageously attired personae during the show. In one of these, he was wearing no more than a strip of masking tape as a jock strap & his cock & balls were hanging out for a couple of numbers. I was right at the front too

I remember a documentary on them being shown on the BBC where a fan saw them in the street and asked them to sign his copy of their new album - they beat him up and smashed up the record. It was obviously staged.

Anyone heard of this band?

They sound like the current scourge of the Daily Mail - a group whose act incorporates nudity, simulated sex and a routine in which a Cadillac is destroyed with chainsaws.

Who's this then? The latest shock rock act from the States? Nope, a band that were, in fact, formed almost 40 years ago. And I'd never heard of them.
