FRONT
Formed: London, England, UK
Minor band whose bassist/vocalist Tommy Trouble (RN Ben Brierley) was also in The Vibrators, Nazis Against Fascism, and Blood Poets. The raunchy 'System' makes extensive use of a slide guitar sounds exactly like the Hollywood Brats (not a bad thing). 'Queen's Mafia' is more sneery, but both songs sum up John Savage's classic put-down of bands like this: "bad rock sped up".
