RELEASED ON RAW RECORDS RAWL 1
Better remembered for their name than for their music, the Acme Sewage Co. was formed in Kettering, England, in early 1977 by vocalist/guitarist Ozzy, bassist Peter Barber, and drummer Simon Sewage — the son, incidentally, of avant-rock legend Lol Coxhill. They gigged a lot through the year, including several shows at the legendary Roxy — they were among the contributors to the venue's Farewell to the Roxy album in 1978, and also landed a brace of tracks on the Raw label's Raw Deal compilation. The band broke up in 1978.
Birmingham, England-based punk band the Killjoys grew out of the artsier Lucy & the Lovers, achieving notoriety for the feisty 1977 single Johnny Won't Get to Heaven, released on Raw Records. Featuring Kevin Rowland and Heather Tonge on vocals, drummer Joe 45, bassist Gem, and guitarist Mark Phillips, the band's lone release earned the enthusiastic support of influential radio DJ John Peel, who had the band down to the BBC studios for two Peel Sessions. The band split before recording another single; Rowland went on to form the popular Dexy's Midnight Runners, and Gem banged some head in Girlschool.
