The Independent Punk Singles Collection

The Angelic Upstarts' scrappy Sunderland punk became a rallying cry for working-class Britain in the late 1970s, and this Anagram Records collection distills their most vital singles into one essential document. Raw, unpolished, and unapologetically direct, their punk cuts bristle with social anger and street-level authenticity that transcended regional UK scenes. Anagram’s reissue treatment gives these tracks the archival weight they’ve always deserved.
