Angelic Upstarts, formed in 1977 in South Shields, England, are a seminal punk rock and Oi! band known for their politically charged lyrics and working-class ethos. Their debut single, "The Murder of Liddle Towers," highlighted police brutality and was later recognized by Mojo magazine as one of the best punk singles of all time. Over the years, they've released influential albums like "Teenage Warning" and "2,000,000 Voices," blending punk aggression with social commentary. Their anti-fascist stance and commitment to social justice have left a lasting impact on the punk scene. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angelic_Upstarts?utm_source=openai))
