Do you know anything about the Abnormal?
They were Welsh, did a Skins N Punks split LP with Barbed Wire, a demo tape, and that's all I know about 'em.

aloud to heaven
and i knelt
on all six legs
and vowed a vow
of vengeance
aloud to heaven
and i knelt
on all six legs
and vowed a vow

Yeah, I know those guys.
Heard from vocalist Nick the other week as he was after a copy of the flyer when they played with Napalm Death at their debut here circa '87-'88. I think he was doing a Faceache page for them.
The perennial blaggers they recently managed to get some tracks on Bullsheep Detector, a Welsh punk history compilation LP/CD, even though they didn't even exist in the compilation's timeframe of 1980-84.
Even though they were on Oi! Records and sounded like an Oi! band, they were in fact basically football casuals. Nick and his brother (drums) did a Cardiff City Football Fanzine and were decked out in Sergio Tacchini and slit jeans when they played alongside the crusty punk bands of the day.
Nick and Scotty (Symbol of Freedom) now put on ska/scooter/mod events, DJ'ing and run a small label called All Systems Go.
