The UK Subs are one of the most visibly successful punk bands of all time, establishing themselves in the history books with a staggering amount of releases and a relentless touring schedule that continues to this day. Beginning at the birth of the British Punk Scene in the 70's, the band is led by the legendary Charlie Harper, the irrepressible front man that has earned the utmost respect from his fellow punk rock contemporaries and the wider punk community, continuing to amaze and inspire with his seemingly inexhaustible lust for life, music and the live circuit.
2013 saw the eagerly anticipated new album 'XXIV' released to critical acclaim. The 'Subs 24th record in their quest to become the first band ever to release their official albums alphabetically from A to Z.
They are of course no strangers to Australasian shores having toured here a number of times with great success. But alas, the time has now come for them to start downsizing their truly impressive
touring regime.
And so it is with great pleasure (and sadness) that Punk Rock Road Trips announce the final Australasian tour for the UK Subs. Shame? You bet! But for all ye old faithful fans this will be one last chance to catch this legendary band live in Australia and New Zealand. And for those who have yet to see the 'Subs in action, don't die wondering.
