PUNK legends Buzzcocks have announced they are releasing a 7in vinyl box-set containing the 12 singles the band released between 1977 and 1980.
The band were formed in Bolton in 1976 by Pete Shelley and Howard Devoto, who were both students at the Bolton Institute of Technology, which was also the site of the band’s first performance.
They went on to become one of punk’s most successful bands with hits like Promises, Love You More and Ever Fallen in Love (With Someone You Shouldn’t’ve).
A spokesperson for Domino Recordings said: “Between November 1977 and December 1980, Buzzcocks ruled the alternative punk pop world in the UK, releasing a run of thrilling singles, which 40 years later transcend time or categorisation. All 12 of those revolutionary 45s are collected here remastered from the original tapes.”
The box set is released on Friday, January 21, 2021.
