Description

The Only Ones were originally formed in August 1976 in South London by Peter Perrett and straddled the musical territory in between punk, power pop and hard rock, with noticeable influences from psychedelia. Their first single was immediately made Record of The Week by three of the four main UK music papers. In 1978 their eponymous debut album was released which was very well received by reviewers and fans. A year later its follow up Even Serpents Shine came to light which was equally well received. The band released one other album before they officially disbanded in 1982.
