Vice Squad is described as one of the most influential bands in the entire history punk. Formed in 1979 by Becki Bondage (Rebecca Louise Bond) on vocals, Dave Bateman on guitar, Mark Hambly on bass and Shane Baldwin on drums. After hearing the great sound of bands like The Damned and The Ruts, Vice Squad decided to become a punk band. After having performed only three gigs, Vice Squad managed to sign with Heartbeat Records and record "Avon Calling". Vice Squad's first debut EP was “Last Rockers”, formed in 1981. With “Last Rockers” created in a matter of a few weeks, Vice Squad went from local status to Punk’s First Division. “Resurrection” EP followed in May of the same year. This topped the Indie charts of EMI Records.
EMI was determined to transfer Vice Squad from an Independent success to National Charts, making Top 75 in the UK. They made another debut LP “No Cause For Concern”, which was done in three days and made No. 32 on the charts. “No Cause For Concern” was an album that brought the Punk movement; youthfulness, energy, rebellious melody and streetwise honestly. Six months later, Vice Squad released their second LP, “Stand Strong Stand Proud”, recorded in London. It featured three tracks, “Stand Strong Stand Proud”, “Tomorrows Soldier”, and “Rock 'n' Roll Massacre”. Released in 1982, the LP took No. 47 and spent a total of five weeks in the UK charts.
In April and May of 1999, the band played successful tours throughout Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, and Spain. They also played the UK punk festival "Holidays in the Sun" alongside UK subs, The Dammed, Anti-Nowhere League, Sham 69, One Way System, and US bands Murphy’s Law, The Dickies, Anti Heroes, and Drop Kick Murphy’s. In July and August of 1999, Vice Squad toured the US as part of the "Social Chaos" tour. Clearly, Vice Squad’s amazing music has made an impact on the punk scene both locally and worldwide.

our concern would only drag us down. THey
lauged at all the boys, and the girls, who
cried tears to baptise the world. Tears to
baptise the world. Some go rick because we
were used, perfect youth cult so abused. We
all gathered to dance and applaud. We cried
out no one heard us call, no one heard us
call. Try to bury the legend, it's time for
the resurrection. Tomorrows forever so look
ahead, there's more to life than playing
dead. Like the neon that lights up the night,
pride and hope once again burn bright are you
ready for the emergance of the unconqured
contigent. They use the torch to carry
alright but the unworthy shall bathe it's
like, the rich mans gain is the punks, loss,
carry the banner that becomes a cross, banner
that becomes the cross. We've got something
to shout about, we are the imortal cult no
more fighting this time stay together, look
ahead tomorrows forever, tomorrows for-ever.
Write an epitaph for us all, sit back
caculate your fall, new strength you could
never explain, born again from my dying pain.
We're not pathetic fashion, we're the
ultimate faction. Find yourself it's not too
late, with strength and unity with our only
faith. Said our feelings were too strong. Our
concern would only drag us down, they laughed
at all the boys, and the girls, who cried
tears to baptise the world. Tears to baptise,
the world. SOme got rick because we were
used. Perfect youth cult so abused. We all
gathered to dance, and applaud, we cried out
no one heard us call, no one heard us call.
Try to burry the legend. It's time to burry
the legent. Tomorrows forever so look ahead.
There's more to life, than playing dead.
Like the neon that lights up the night pride
and hope once again burn bright are you ready
for the emergance of the unconqured
contigent. They use the tourch to carry
alright but the unworthy shall bathe it's
light, the rich mans gain is the punks, loss.
Carry the banner that becomes the cross,

somehting to shout about, we are the immortal
cult, no more fighting this time stay
together, look ahead tomorrows forever,
