Vice Squad is a venerable outfit within the punk rock scene, known for their no-nonsense, raw sonic power fused with socially and politically charged lyrics. Emerging from the vibrant Bristol punk scene in the late 1970s, they quickly made their mark with the release of their debut single "Last Rockers" in 1981. The band is fronted by the indomitable Beki Bondage, whose voice and presence have become synonymous with the band's identity.

Over the years, Vice Squad has remained an enduring force in punk music, with numerous lineup changes but always maintaining their core ethos. In their more recent work, such as "Battle of Britain" and their various EPs like "The Winter of Discontent" and "Bang Bang Bang," the band continues to deliver their signature blend of high-energy punk. They are also noted for their punk renditions of popular classics, as seen in their cover versions of tracks like "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," "Lithium," and "Enter Sandman." True to their roots, yet evolving with the times, Vice Squad's music strikes a chord with both original punk veterans and newer generations of alternative music fans.
