There are two bands with the name Subhumans: 1)Subhumans (UK): The Subhumans are an anarcho-punk band formed in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, UK in 1979 by Dick Lucas, who had formerly been in local bands including The Mental and Stupid Humans. The band released a demo in 1981 which was heard by members of the band Flux of Pink Indians after being sent to them by Graham Burnett of New Crimes fanzine, who were so impressed that they offered the Subhumans a chance to put out a record on their newly formed Spiderleg label. Shortly afterwards the Subhumans began to release material on their own Bluurg Records label. After the Subhumans split up Lucas formed the bands Culture Shock and Citizen Fish. The Subhumans occasionally reform for live performances, including at least two major tours of North America in the 21st Century, (Live in a Dive is a product of the first) and they continue to command a strong following.

Our society what a drag
Another nervous breakdown another fag
You can t get to sleep cos you lost your pills
And the protein tablets make you ill
Our society- what a drag!
Drive around in a smashed up car
Sometimes you wonder who you are
You look depressed as you walk upstairs
Cos you lost your job and no one cares
See the policemen running round
Driving culture underground
They get paid to put you away
Cos that s how the system works these days
Join the people on the Dole
They lost interest years ago
What hope is there for you and me?
If this is our society?
