Anarchy in the U.K Tour

A London concert by the Sex Pistols under the title Anarchy in the U.K Tour, presented as a punk and rock night at O2 Academy Brixton.

The Sex Pistols formed in London in 1975 and became the defining group of British punk. Their debut single, Anarchy in the U.K., was released in 1976 and gave the tour its title, while the band's only studio album, Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols, followed later that year. The line-up includes the drummer Paul Cook, one of the group's original members, alongside the band's other musicians.

The group's music draws on the raw, fast guitar-driven rock of the mid-1970s, with short songs built on distorted guitars and shouted vocals. The tour name refers directly to the band's best-known anthem, so the material is rooted in their early catalogue.

O2 Academy Brixton is a music venue in south London that hosts concerts and shows throughout the year. The night suits listeners interested in the origins of British punk and in the group's own recordings from the period.
