Played extensively in the early to late 80's around England with some of the biggest names in punk and oi! of the time, First recordings on "the son of oi!" led to a bigger fan base, and in turn moer compilation lp's and eventually a first full LP 'anytime day or night' for cardiff legend Roddy Moreno's OI! records. The first oi! records band to have not only a full colour sleeve, but a printed inner sleeve aswell!

“VICIOUS RUMOURS- FARTICUS-THE RARITIES (PST RECORDS)
IF YOU LOVE YOUR PUNK AND OI! THE CLASSIC WAY (THINK SHADES OF THE CLASH COATED WITH 'TEST TUBES,LASHED WITH 'SPARRER AND INJECTED WITH A GOOD OL' SENSE OF BRITISH HUMOUR IN THE LYRICS) THEN THIS IS A 'MUST HAVE' FOR YOUR COLLECTION.
THIS COMPILATION ENCOMPASSES LARGELY UNKNOWN SONGS AND THE 'BEST OF THE BEST' OF VR, COMPRISING OF VERSIONS OF THEIR EXCELLENT 1983 DEMO, 2 LIVE TRACKS AND 7 OTHER SONGS RECORDED IN THE EARLY 'NOUGHTIES'
ITS EASY TO SEE WHY THE GODFATHER OF OI, GARRY BUSHELL, CHOSE TO INCLUDE THEM ON THE ORIGINAL 'SON OF OI!' ALBUM AND THEY CONTINUE TO DELIVER THE GOODS TO THIS DAY.
I SAY 'THANK FUCK' FOR BANDS LIKE VICIOUS RUMOURS WHO, EVEN AFTER SPANNING 3 DECADES IN ONE FORM OR OTHER, CONTINUE TO RELENTLESSLY FLY-THE-BANNER FOR US ALL AND HAMMER HOME WHY WE SHOULD ALL KEEP THE PUNK ROCK FAITH..............
