Drinking And DrivingThe Business

The Business, an Oi! punk band representing the UK punk scene, was formed in London in 1979.

As a voice for working-class youths, they created a powerful sound infused with anti-establishment lyrics and the spirit of the streets.

They made their debut in 1981 with the album Suburban Rebels, and their music—closely tied to football culture—resonated with many.

Despite lineup changes, they continued to embody the essence of punk rock, bolstered by the commanding presence of vocalist Micky Fitz, who passed away in 2016.

Their simple, hard-hitting guitar riffs and catchy melodies capture the very core of punk rock: rebellious at heart, yet never forgetting the sheer joy of music.
