DESCRIPTION:
Formed in the gritty Northern industrial wasteland of Rochdale, Untermensch were the archetypal voice of intelligent, creative youth who knew exploitation, subjugation, marginalisation and a bent Tory Government when they saw one. As those at a decaying society's margins were scooped together in rotting highrise cesspools and left to fend for/destroy themselves, they felt first-hand the tightening fist of Thatcherism - and the reciprocal cold thud of an angry Doc Martin in the spuds.

As the song says - "This is 1982. This is sick"

Indeed, Untermensch were archytypal angry young men themselves. In a bleak world of mass unemployment, simmering rebellion, nuclear threat and social breakdown, they were against
everything, everywhere all the time. In a scary, difficult age, it was a good place to be.

And it still is.
