About this Event
Culture Shock - the original English anarcho ska-punk-reggae fusioneers, formed by Subhumans' Dick Lucas,. Over their four year history from 86 - 89, the band played hundreds of gigs, including frequent appearances at free festivals, and released three studio albums on the Bluurg record label. Lucas’ lyrics were mostly concerned with social and political issues, from cruelty to animals, Northern Ireland, war, and social alienation, but were far from angry rants, often finding a positive and empowering perspective. Culture Shock split at the end of 1989, as Bill and Nige both had young families to support. Dick went on to form Citizen Fish with Jasper, the bassist on Culture Shock’s final album, and two other former members of the Subhumans.
Culture Shock are now reformed since 2013, with another three albums released since then- onwards!
Support on the night comes from Dundalk's The Gakk, California's Nixed, and from New Jersey Your Best Nightmare
