Reissue, originally released in 1984. Emerging from the northern market town of Grantham in the early 1980s, English Dogs reached the punk spotlight opening for Charged GBH and Discharge. Debut album Invasion Of The Porky Men features the band's original line-up, with drummer Andrew Pinching, bassist Mark "Wattie" Watson, guitarist John Murray, and vocalist Pete "Wakey" Wakefield, the hardcore focus very different from the metal direction they would take after Wakey moved on and Gizz Butt added his guitar pyrotechnics. This debut disc is a must for all UK hardcore fanatics, who like their punk delivered in raw, unadorned thrash mode.

Formed in the northern market town of Grantham in 1981, hardcore punk band English Dogs swiftly built a reputation via demos, supporting Charged GBH and Discharge on early tours.
