BBC Four recently ran a three part series documenting the years preluding punk rock, punk itself and what was born in the wake of the Pistols' demise, which would laster become known as post-punk. The story of punk which arguably ran its course between 1976-1978 is a story most music fan has heard many times over, however, the story of the generation of musicians that followed and re-imagined punk rock under Margaret Thatcher is a story told far less.
