For those new to the band, here's a bit of our story:

Resistance 77 formed in 1979. We briefly went by The Anti Heroes, but soon chose a name that better reflected our sound and attitude—Resistance 77. Inspired by the raw energy of the original '77 punk scene, we set out to keep that spirit alive at a time when the scene was turning thrashier.

Our first gig was in 1980 at South Normanton Miners Welfare. Since then, we’ve taken our brand of true punk and Oi! across the world—from the U.S.A. and the Czech Republic to France, Spain, Italy, Germany, and beyond.

In 2010, we marked 30 years with the 30 Years of True Punk & Oi CD, a retrospective of tracks from across the decades. Five years later, we followed it up with a special 2-disc 35 Years of True Punk & Oi release, featuring songs from Retaliate First, Long Time Dead, Songs for a Nanny State, Survival of the Richest, plus live recordings from Derby and Sheffield.
