“Hello folks,
we want to come clean here… over the lockdown we have been trying to navigate through some serious setbacks that are preventing us from doing what we love.
It is hugely frustrating as you can imagine but Jeremy has been struggling with nerve damage in his elbow which is preventing him from drumming. On top of this, Robin now has some damage to his left hand (resulting in numbness) preventing him from playing the guitar properly.
For this reason, regrettably, we are having to cancel Undercover Festival and Events in April (Guilford).
We are happy to hear Mick got the legendary Omega Tribe on as our replacement.
We will let you know any updates as we get them, but at the moment there is no definitive prognosis so it is hard to predict when we will be up and running again.
Please bear with us.
All the best,
x The Restarts

It’s still hard to believe but it’s really happening. The Subhumans (UK) will be touring Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland in October/November 2021!

Turbo Booking has a new postal address.
This will be the new location for the tour vans as well!

Unfortunately IDestroy have to cancel their tour for the third time. Germany is on the UK’s risk list and the band would have to be in quarantine for 2 weeks after their return to England, which they can’t afford because of their day jobs.

After I had to say goodbye to Rosie, I’m now also parting with my beloved tour van Rudy — unfortunately due to the lack of bookings during the pandemic.
But don’t worry, I’ve still got a van for you!
Check out Ronny — and feel free to get in touch. I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
Bye bye Rudy!
Ronny is still available!

We’re doing our best to reschedule as many of them as possible.

Three tours by three amazing bands – The Franklys, The Ghost Wolves and The Restarts – are about to kick off soon!

London punk rock three-piece The Restarts will release their new album Uprising on October 25th via Oakland-based label Pirates Press Records — the same label behind the new Subhumans album Crisis Point and a 7-inch split featuring both bands.
The first track, “Black Dog,” is already available to stream here. They have a slew of exciting teasers coming out leading up to the launch party, a very exciting selection of current punk rock reprobates for your discerning pleasures! The record release party will take place at the New Cross Inn, with 5 other bands who celebrate Punkrock.

Both Subhumans and the Autogramm hit the road starting July 19th, and IDestroy are flying in for two shows this weekend — get ready!
IDESTROY
Jul/19/19 DE–Aachen, AZ
Jul/20/19 DE-Idar-Oberstein, Rock im Daal
AUTOGRAMM
“Autogramm is not afraid to show their influence and their influence is that exact point where Punk and New Wave merged in 1978. Taking the minimalist hooks from the Cars and the slightly sinister buzz of Tubeway Army, Autogramm crank out a catchy number that not only would fit right at home on an I love the ‘80s soundtrack, but would also put about half of the songs on that tape to shame.”
– John Gentile, Punknews, NYC
SUBHUMANS
“Considering how long this band have been going it’s incredible how much energy they still display when they play live. Frontman and lyricist Dick Lucas is still an absolute inspiration. Somehow he doesn’t seem to have aged a bit proving that the anarcho punk lifestyle is obviously good for your health. Incredible band.”
