Flux of Pink Indians
Flux of Pink Indians was an English punk rock band from Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, active between 1980 and 1986.
The band formed in Hertfordshire, England in 1980 from the remaining members of The Epileptics (who during the first half of 1979 changed their name to Epi-X, owing to letters of complaint from The British Epilepsy Association) by Colsk Latter (vocals) and Derek Birkett (bass guitar) with guitarists Andy Smith and Neil Puncher, and drummer Sid Ation (who was also a member of Rubella Ballet).
The group signed with the Crass Records label in 1981. Their debut EP Neu Smell was released on Crass in 1981; it featured indie hit "Tube Disasters". Flux of Pink Indians released their debut album in 1983, Strive to Survive Causing Least Suffering Possible, through their own label, Spiderleg Records.
They released a second album in 1984, The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks. This was banned by many British retailers, and copies were seized by Greater Manchester Police from the Eastern Bloc record shop, which was charged with displaying "Obscene Articles For Publication For Gain".
Ation left the group to work full-time with Rubella Ballet, and was replaced by Bambi, formerly of Discharge, while Smith was replaced by Simon Middlehurst. However, both departed for their original band, The Insane. While auditioning for their replacements, Puncher also left; the line-up was completed by former Darlex and Epileptics guitarist Kev Hunter, and drummer Martin Wilson. An extensive interview with the band appeared in No Class fanzine.
By 1986, the band had shortened their name to Flux and released their third album, Uncarved Block, which was produced by Adrian Sherwood and featured several members of the On-U Sound Records label.
Flux disbanded in 1987.
Birkett, making use of his experiences with Spiderleg, set up One Little Indian Records. Latter went on to form the dance-influenced Hotalacio, and was joined by drummer Wilson and guitarist Middlehurst.
