Icon A.D.

Formed: Leeds, North Yorkshire, England, UK
Anarcho punks who began life in 1979 as Icon, and as such contributed 'Cancer' to the Bullshit Detector compilation in 1981. The band split soon after, but guitarist Craig Sharp carried on with a new lineup as Icon A.D., releasing two fairly melodic singles for the Norwich-based Radical Change label. A third single, to be called Backs To The Wall, was not released until 2006, when it was included in the band's retrospective CD ...Lest We Forget.
