RECORDS
GBH Records was a DIY Irish label. It managed one
single. It issued singles in GBH-000 numerical series. The Outcasts
were a punk rock band from Belfast, Northern Ireland formed in 1977. The band
formed in early 1977, with an initial line up of Blair Hamilton (vocals), Greg
Cowan (bass), Colin "Getty" Getgood (lead guitar), and Greg's brothers Colin
Cowan (drums), and Martin Cowan (rhythm guitar). According to Greg Cowan, their
name derived from the fact that they were banned from five clubs in one week.
Hamilton left the band within a month of its formation, with Greg Cowan taking
over vocals. After being sacked from Good Vibrations records, their next release
was on their own GBH label in 1981, the "Magnum Force" single. This was followed
by the band's first Peel Session for BBC Radio 1. GBH became Outcasts Only, and
their next releases was the Programme Love EP in 1981. Distributed By GBH
Records.
