subhumans- the day the country died

The Subhumans are an anarcho-punk band formed in the Trowbridge & Melksham area of Wiltshire, UK in 1980. Dick Lucas joined later in the year, having formerly been in local band The Mental. Other members had been in the Stupid Humans.

The band released a demo in 1981 which was heard by members of the band Flux of Pink Indians after being sent to them by Graham Burnett of New Crimes fanzine, who were so impressed that they offered the Subhumans a chance to put out a record on their newly formed Spiderleg label. Shortly afterwards the Subhumans began to release material on their own Bluurg Records label. After the Subhumans split up Lucas formed the bands Culture Shock and Citizen Fish. The Subhumans occasionally reform for live performances, including at least two major tours of North America in the 21st Century, (Live in a Dive is a product of the first) and they continue to command a strong following. Subhumans are known for their thought provoking lyrics.

In 1987, the Subhumans broke up, but reformed in 1998 and embarked on a US Tour. They returned and toured the US and Canada in both 2005 & 2006.

The Subhumans have recorded a new album, Internal Riot, and are self-releasing it on Bluurg Records in September 2007. They have been touring Europe throughout 2007 and have a month-long US tour lined up beginning 24 August 2007.
