Culture Shock - the UK ones, as oppose to the Indianapolis/Holland/Scotland/Bhangra music lot (seemed to be a popular name!) - mixed their punk roots with ska and raggae music to a previously unheard extent and influenced the styles of bands like AOS3, Back to the Planet, Bender, at a time when the free festival scene was under state attack following the cessation of the Sronehenge Festival; CS were one of a heap of bands playing as many festivals as possible, alongside their more regular gigs and this earned them a broard range of support. Their three LPs, Go Wild, Onwards and Upwards and All The Time!, were released on Bluurg Records. They did 205 gigs between 86-89 and split when Nigel (guitar) and Bill (drums) became parents. Paul on bass was replaced by Jasper (ex Rhythmites) in 89 and he and Dick (vocals) formed Citizen Fish.
