Picture Frame Seduction formed in 1978 in Haverfordwest in West Wales playing the same style of punk music as counterparts The Partisans from Bridgend. The band was called The Frames until 1979 when they recorded their first demo and in particular a very fast version of Pearl Harbour. The band have been hit by tragedy and intrigue over the years with deaths of fans at shows and band members going missing or dying.

Demob formed in late 1978 by guitarist Terry Elcock and drummer Johnny Melfah, and they were soon joined by Mike Howes (vocals), Tony Wakefield (bass) and Chris Rush (guitar). Howes ex-army skinhead friend Andy Kanonik soon joined, also on vocals.[1] It was this line-up that first rehearsed and played the first gigs in and around Gloucester, the Viking youth club becoming the main place of rehearsals and Tracy's night club was the first venue that Demob played in 1978, and became the local night club hangout for all the band and punks at that time.

Mansfield based RIOT SQUAD were originally formed in September 1981 in the small Nottinghamshire mining village of Shirebrook.

They first started out by playing small local gigs in and around Mansfield before hitting the road and travelling up and down the UK on small tours.
