REASONS TO so SEE
VIC GODARD AND THE SUBWAY SECT
f Godard is a one-man cult OK, not a cult, a sect — The Subway Sect to be exact. Godard was the man behind the infamous punk outfit who formed at the suggestion of Malcolm McLaren to fill out the bill of his 100 Club Punk Festival in 1976. Unrehearsed and shambolic. Godard and pals played alongside the Sex Pistols. Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Clash.
2 He’s an outsider among outsiders The Subway Sect never really fitted into the punk scene too well, their intelligent brand of noise as much influenced by French pop. Velvet Underground, Sinatra and Northern Soul as anything else. As a result. they always got pelters at punk shows.
3 He’s a postie Disillusioned with the music industry. Godard retired in 1983 and became a postman. Ten years of that was enough to ensure legendary status. and he returned to the fold in the 903. but still keeps on his postie job as a nice little earner.
4 He’s an inspiration in Scotland Edwyn Collins was blown away by The Subway Sect on The Clash's White Riot tour, and called Godard ‘the best songwriter of his generation'. Similarly. The Fire Engines and The Jesus and Mary Chain were heavily influenced.
5 He’s even got a lost album Well. not anymore. The first Subway Sect album was recorded but never released in an acrimonious break up. After getting fed up with people talking about it, Godard went into the studio last year and re-recorded versions of all the songs. released last month as 1978 NOW. (Doug Johnstone)
