Their working-class attitude and punk sound won them fans throughout Britain’s inner cities during the era.

They signed to EMI who released their debut album Greatest Hits Volume 1 and its successor Greatest Hits Volume 2 in 1980.

Further albums followed during the decade as well as a famous version of I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles in support of West Ham United.

After disbanding in the 1990s, they returned to the live circuit in 2000 and have continued to play across the world.

Cockney Rejects are due to release a new album this year.

They headline the Northampton venue on Friday, November 26.

Doors open at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £18 before fees and are available via www.theroadmender.com
