Formed in Ipswich in the late 1970s, The Adicts are one of the most distinctive and enduring bands of British punk. Fronted by the unmistakable Monkey, they crafted a high-energy, melodic punk sound paired with a visual identity inspired by A Clockwork Orange, setting them apart from the very beginning.

Their live shows are legendary celebrations of controlled chaos, filled with confetti, bubbles, props and theatrical flair. With seminal albums like Songs of Praise and Sound of Music, The Adicts have secured their place as a cornerstone of punk rock — playful, provocative and relentlessly alive.
