G.B.H. - City Baby Attacked By Rats LP

Radiation Records present a reissue of GBH's City Baby Attacked By Rats, originally released in 1982. Street punk pioneers Charged GBH formed in Birmingham in 1978, the name referencing original bassist Sean McCarthy's trial for grievous bodily harm. The in-your-face hardcore of EP Leather, Bristles, Studs And Acne, paved the way for super-charged debut LP, City Baby Attacked By Rats, which hit the number two position on the British indie charts on release in 1982, as well as the mainstream top 20, despite being released by tiny independent, Clay Records. With a touch of Motorhead and Sabbath beneath their straight-up hardcore, City Baby is where the legend begins, capturing GBH at their bloodiest.
