From Leeds England



Abrasive Wheels, one of the original and most successful 80's Punk bands released
two top selling albums, When the Punks go Marching in" and the classic "Black Leather Girl".
During the early eighties the British band, based in Leeds were seldom out of the top five
of the Indie Chart with blistering anthems such as The Army Song, Vicious Circle,
Burn em Down, Jailhouse Rock, Banner of Hope, and The Prisoner.
The Band reformed with the original lineup plus new guitarist Steve Popplewell and did their
first gig in Bradford, England in February 2003.

On their official Site: www.abrasivewheels.net
