  • Concrete Sox are a British crust punk band largely seen as an early style crossover thrash band who incorporated many thrash metal style riffs on their earlier albums. Started in 1983 from jam sessions with 'Gabba' (Chaos UK/F.U.K. ) and 'Kalv' (Heresy/Geriatric Unit) and various other 'friends', the band were formed by Vic Timoveric (Vic Croll) and his friend Les Duly. Not set on a permanent name, they once gigged as 'Concrete Evidence', but the name 'Concrete Sox' (Vics parody of a Hendrix Dead Boy sub-band, called 'The Steam Roller Gloves') became the bands official name. First release was the LP Your Turn Next in 1985 on COR records followed by —a split LP with Heresy on Earache Records in 1986. The band went on to record a further album on Manic Ears records entitled Whoops, Sorry Vicar! (1987) and a fourth album on Big Kiss records entitled Sewerside (1989). They later released a further album entitled No World Order in the early 1990s. They were one of the more important of the British hardcore / crust punk influenced thrash bands during the late 1980s. Their work is mostly out of print on physical media, though some records have been recently repressed on compact disc by Speedstate records, and most of their recordings are available via peer to peer networks and tape trading. Concrete Sox reformed in 2009 with a new line-up..
