The Outsiders were formed in Wimbledon, UK in 1976. Their "Calling you" album was the first DIY LP released world-wide after the explosion of Buzzcocks first 7" but Outsiderss LP is the first DIY punk full length. Adrian Borland together with Bob Lawrence and Adrian James formed the band and recorded and released this first LP on the Raw Edge Label on May 1977. A brilliant combination of the first punks steps mixed with some rock and also some hard-rock moments in the vein of The Stooges, Modern Lovers and Peter Perretts Only Ones. The final result was a seminal punk album played with the energy of these young kids who tried to scream and shout all their frustration and anger. Also some of the riffs were not so well played, something that increases the result of this release.
