Madness - The Lot


Madness are a British ska and pop band from Camden Town, London.
The band formed as The North London Invaders in 1976 and renamed itself as Madness in 1979, paying homage to one of their favourite songs by Prince Buster.
In an article in Sounds Magazine in 1979, Chris Foreman explained that the band's music would move with the times and change styles as time goes on. This was shown to be the case, as unlike the ska-influenced sound of One Step Beyond... and Absolutely, the album 7 was something of a change in direction and moved towards a pop sound; a trend that continued with subsequent studio albums.
In 1984 Madness left Stiff Records and formed their own label, Zarjazz Records, which was a sub-label of Virgin Records.
Despite the poor chart showing of Mad Not Mad in 1985, the band attempted to record a new studio album and 11 demo tracks were recorded. However, musical differences arose between the band members. The untitled album went unreleased and in 1986 the band announced that they were to break-up.


In 1992 Madness announced plans for a reunion concert, Madstock!, which was held at Finsbury Park, London on 8 and 9 August of that year and released their first studio album since 1986, entitled Wonderful. The band has been performing and recording since then.

Band members:
Graham McPherson - vocals
Christopher John Foreman - guitar
Cathal Joseph Smyth - trumpet

Michael Barson - keyboards

MDC - Millions Of Dead Cops/More Dead Cops & Smoke Signals


MDC is an American punk rock band, formed in 1979 in Austin, Texas. The band originally formed as The Stains.
MDC were one of three pioneering hardcore punk bands in Austin, Texas in the early '80s, alongside The Dicks and Big Boys. These bands frequently played together and established the Austin hardcore scene.
By 1982 MDC relocated to San Francisco and renamed themselves MDC. The band's lyrical content expresses radical left political views.


During the summer of 1982 they became involved in the Rock Against Reagan Tour, during which time they fell out with the band Bad Brains when Rastafarian singer H.R. learned that Big Boys' singer, Randy Turner, was gay. H.R. and MDC's Dave Dictor had an intense confrontation. Upon Bad Brains' departure from the bill, they refused to return a loan owed to Big Boys and instead left a note that reportedly read "burn in hell bloodclot faggot". The incident resulted in the MDC song "Pay To Come Along".


MDC's initial run ended in 1995 and the band spent five years on hiatus, before returning in 2000 with new band members.

Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables, Plastic Surgery Disasters/In God We Trust, Inc., Frankenchrist, Bedtime For Democracy & Give Me Convenience Or Give Me Death


Dead Kennedys were an American hardcore band from San Francisco, California, formed in 1978.
Their first live show was on 19 July 1978 at Mabuhay Gardens in San Francisco.
The band decided to split up in January 1986 and played their last live show with the original lineup on 21 February 1986 at Freeborn Hall at UC Davis.

Dead Kennedys' lyrics were usually political in nature, satirizing political figures and authority in general, as well as popular culture and even the punk movement itself. They attracted considerable controversy for their provocative lyrics and artwork. Several stores refused to stock their recordings, provoking debate about censorship in rock music. In the mid-1980s, vocalist and primary lyricist Jello Biafra became an active campaigner against the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC). This culminated in an obscenity trial between 1985 and 1986, which resulted in a hung jury and also hastened the band's demise (a hung jury results in a mistrial and the case may be retried).


Band members:
Eric Reed Boucher - vocals
Carlos Cadona - guitar
Raymond John Pepperell - guitar
Geoffrey Lyall - bass
Darren Eric Henley - drums
Bruce Slesinger - drums.
