Biography
Tony Wakeford project founded 1984 after his involvement in Death In June. Neither the releases nor Wakeford himself named any of his contributing musicians. The music's post punk sound bears resemblance both to early Death In June and his future project Sol Invictus. The anonymity of the band members, the lyrics (dedicated to subjects like patriotism, anti-Marxism, anti-egalitarianism and anti-multiculturalism) and Wakeford's political affiliations of the time led to on-going controversy and speculation surrounding the project.
