Formed in 1980 and coming from Evesham, Worcestershire - WRATHCHILD almost and should have hit the big time. After original guitarist Phil Wrathchild (later to be Phil Volken of Persian Risk) departed, the above line up became the definitive Wrathchild. Live they were unparalleled. Hair raised to the sky, made up to the hilt, leather, studz, flashbombs .... WRATHCHILD were trash rock's greatest exponent and one of the founders of the worldwide 80's glam revival. WRATHCHILD made the cover of Sounds magazine in 1983 I think. Unheard of for a metal or glam act. They also notoriously made the front...
These are photos from concerts where Wrathchild played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
