Formed by Boyd Farrell and Paul Cleary of Snitch (Cleary was also in Trenchmouth), with Keith Campbell of
D. Ceats and Tommy Carr from the Penetrators.In 1986,
Ian MacKaye ofMinor Threat recorded what would have been their second LP. When the band couldn't find a label to release the album they broke up, playing a farewell gig in January 1988.
