Anti-System - Anti-System

Anti-System were a British anarcho punk band that formed in Bradford in 1981.
The band recorded a demo in 1982. They first surfaced on the "Punk Dead, Nah Mate" compilation and followed with their debut single "Defence Of The Realm" EP. Halfway through the recording of the EP bassist George was replaced by Mickey Knowles.
In 1984 the band appeared on another Pax compilation, "Bollox To The Gonads - Here's The Testicles". Nogsy had left by the time of its release. "No Laughing Matter" followed in March 1985, but as with their debut EP was let down by bad material and poor production.
Their final EP, "A Look At Life" was notable for a move towards thrash metal. Shortly after the EP was recorded, vocalist Mick Teale and bassist Mark Keane (both of whom had joined in 1984) were sent to prison for doing over three butchers' shops and setting cattle free from a local abattoir, which spelled the end for the band.

Band members:
Simon Nolan (Nogsy) - vocals
Dominic Watts - guitar
George Clarke - bass
