to the life and
times of the legendary London garage band, The Wolfhounds.

most prolific, versatile and popular groups at work in the eighties.
They were born in East London in 1985. After years of working in
a wool warehouse, a laboratory, a plastics factory and a coffee
bar their first record 'Cut The Cake', was published in 1986. Since
then they have written many songs on philosophy, the occult, crime
and sexual deviance plus a host of successful songs which have won
them an international reputation.
Their
work has been translated into Spanish, French, Swedish, Dutch, Welsh,
Arabic, Urdu, Japanese, German, Finnish and Hebrew.
Written and performed by David Callahan, Paul Clark, Andrew Golding,
Francis Stebbing and Andy Bolton.
All Tracks recorded and released between November 1985 and November
1989, and originally released on The Pink Label, September and Midnight
