English new wave group formed in 1979 in Bristol. Best know for the track 'Move Fast-Stay Ahead', on the Bristol compilation album Avon Calling, released by Heartbeat Records in 1979. The track was written by Russ Thomas, who provided vocals and played guitar. The drummer was Marc Hatwood, formally of Coventry band Squad, which included Terry Hall in their lineup. Later Paul Tyler was added on bass and Steve Libby on keyboards.
In 1980 Tyler left and Hatwood got disillusioned and joined Mud - later to write film music. Thomas and Libby carried on under the name of Metropolis with Geoff Baker on bass and Simon Phillips on drums. In 1981 Libby left to join The Agents and then Force Majeure. Later in the year the rest of the band split up.
In 2005 new interest in band occurred when Avon Calling was released on CD.
