    Formed in the summer of 1979, this East London band forged a style with punk and psych roots. Their singles and albums were released on the Bridgehouse label, which was operated by bassist Darren Murphy’s dad, Terry, from his pub of the same name in Canning Town

    Wasted Youth broke up in December 1982.

    Darren Murphy passed away in February 2012 after a battle with cancer.
