Subhumans are a long-standing punk rock band from the United Kingdom. Originally formed in 1980, they went under the name Subhuman before changing it to Subhumans within their first year together. After breaking up in 1986, the band reformed in 1998 and have been actively touring ever since. The members of Subhumans are also involved in other musical projects such as Citizen Fish and Culture Shock.

With a rich history and a strong presence in the punk rock scene, Subhumans have become an influential force in the genre. Their music is characterized by fast-paced rhythms, politically charged lyrics, and energetic performances that captivate audiences worldwide.

Please note that Subhumans should not be confused with another early Canadian punk band called The Subhumans from Vancouver, British Columbia.

While the A-side contains nine short sharp bursts of energized punk, gleefully embracing all points of the spikey spectrum, from the breakneck thrash of "Reality Is Waiting For A Bus" to the ominous dirge of "Wake Up Screaming", it is the ambitious title track that really captures the imagination, its sprawling sixteen-plus-minute running time telling the sorry tale of the human life cycle across a myriad of dynamic acts. If anyone was still in any doubt, it was the band defiantly setting out their stall as a creative entity that existed outside the stifling constraints of perceived musical sub-genres. Committed to tape by the visionary John Loder at Southern Studios at the tail end of 1983, it was released in April 1984 to widespread acclaim – and only kept from the No. 1 spot in the Independent Charts by New Order!
