From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia Anti-Pasti was a
British punk band founded by vocalist Martin Roper and guitarist Dugi Bell
in 1979, featuring Kev Nixon on drums and Will Hoon on bass guitar. Later
they were joined by a second guitarist, Olly Hoon. Their first LP, The Last
Call, spent seven weeks in the UK Albums Chart, placing at a high of 31.
Roper left the band in 1982, and Anti-Pasti effectively ended.
[edit] History
From Derbyshire, England, Anti-Pasti were part of the third wave of punk of
the early 1980s. The group were formed from a local outfit called The
Scrincers, and comprised Dugi Bell on guitar, Martin Roper on lead vocals,
Russell Maw and Eddie Barke. Barke and Maw soon quit, the latter going on to
play for The Allies, Aftermath UK and The Egyptian Kings. With the addition
of Stu Winfield on bass and Stan Smith on drums, they released their debut
EP, "Four Sore Points", on their own Dose record label. They played many
gigs in and around Derby, most notably The Cosmo Club and soon built up a
large local following.
Winfield and Smith were then replaced by Kev Nixon and Will Hoon before the
group signed to Rondelet Records and re-releasing the "Four Sore Points EP"
and "Let Them Free" in January 1981. Later that year, Anti-Pasti released
their debut album, The Last Call, which reached the UK Top 30. Their growing
profile was confirmed when a third single, "Six Guns', appeared at the end
of the year and reached number 1 in the UK Independent chart, as did the
successful joint venture with The Exploited on a 12" single EP, "Don't Let 'Em
Grind You Down".
"East To The West", released in 1982, preceded the final Anti-Pasti album
and single, both titled "Caution To The Wind", which featured Will Noon's
brother Ollie on guitar. A self-titled singles retrospective surfaced a year
later, but the group split in 1984 following the firing of Roper. There was
a reunion in 1995, leading to mini-tours of the UK and Germany. Rumours
circulated about them reforming to play the 2009 Punk and Disorderly
festival in Berlin, but this never occurred. |
