Mike MansourHOST
Now, Stupid Humans from Warminster, on the other hand, are made up of Bruce Treasure on guitar, Julian Newby on vocals, Herb on bass, and Andy Gale on drums.
Mike MansourHOST
Dick befriends Bruce and Julian at an Angelic Upstarts show in Trowbridge, and soon The Mental and Stupid Humans start playing shows together.
Mike MansourHOST
Not long after this, though, the mental breaks up.
Mike MansourHOST
We'd all left school and it became a bit stupid, traveling 60 miles to go practice at Psychic's house, and things started breaking down and not really working out.
JackHOST
So yes, if you were experiencing website issues, that was the reason why.
JackHOST
But now that we're back online, we're going to continue with some more punk rock here with Angelic Upstarts.
JackHOST
This is also called Reptile Rule.
JackHOST
And also the station wasn't offline because that's a different provider.
JackHOST
So thank goodness for that.
JackHOST
Just the website was intermittently having issues with song submissions.
JackHOST
But yes, here's Angelic Upstarts.

Rob WalkerHOST
It was a follow-up single to their only top 40, Homicide, but released 12 months later, which had taken the sting out of their momentum and it peaked at number 69.
Rob WalkerHOST
A band now that were very much influenced by Sham 69 and were one of the bands that proved to be an influence on the always seen that was to follow the angelic upstarts.
Rob WalkerHOST
This is Never Add Nothing, a number 56 charting single.
Rob WalkerHOST
The band's best known frontman Menzi died in 2021 from COVID and he had retired from the band in 2006 but insisted that the band continued without him, which they still do today.

David EastaughHOST
Yes.
Stan GreenwoodGUEST
So, but I still, I still kept on going to see other rock bands, you know.
JakeHOST
Yeah
DaveHOST
Um, probably very similar to the Angelic Upstarts version of the, The Young Ones.
DaveHOST
But yeah, um, and, and like I say, I honestly can't really say, tell you any more about it.
JakeHOST
Right
Dylan HensleyHOST
Cockney Rejects put out Greatest Hits Volume 1 and 2.
Dylan HensleyHOST
Angelic Upstarts, We Gotta Get Out of This Place.
Dylan HensleyHOST
So oi! very much underway.
Dylan HensleyHOST
Some of your lesser-known or not as big of names from post-punk, 'cause there's, like, you know, Remain in Light by Talking Heads rather than, you know, focus on records we've mentioned a million times on the show.
