THE OUTSIDERSPioneering U.K. punk band who were early adopters of the D.I.Y. philosophy;
founder Adrian Borland later formed the Sound. The Outsiders were one of the
first bands on the British punk scene to commit their sounds to vinyl.
Boasting an edgy but decisively rocking sound that was influenced by the Stooges,
the Velvet Underground, and the Doors, the Outsiders predated many of the bands
that codified the U.K. punk sound, which was a blessing and a curse; while their
music had a personality that set them apart from the many bands that would
follow them, they soon found they didn't sound "punk" enough for fans who
jumped on the bandwagon in the wake of the Sex Pistols and the Clash.
The Outsiders were formed by guitarist and lead singer Adrian Borland,
who was attending school in 1975

After Virgin Records rejected the Outsiders' first demos, Borland's father agreed
to bankroll pressing and releasing an album, and in May 1977,
Calling on Youth became the first D.I.Y. punk LP released in England,
appearing on the Outsiders' own Raw Edge label. Six months later,
the Outsiders released a follow-up EP, One to Infinity. While both records
were modestly successful, neither was truly a hit, and the Outsiders'
eclectic sound didn't always fare well with critics, who questioned the group's
punk credibility on the basis of their hair length and occasional use of acoustic guitars...(AllMusic)
