The Wasps

The Wasps emerged as part of Britain's 1977 punk wave alongside bands like the Cortinas, Drones, and Suburban Studs. In their early days, the quartet issued two singles -- "Teenage Treats" and "Can't Wait 'Til '78" -- and appeared on numerous compilations. After signing with the majors in 1979, they released "Rubber Cars" before abruptly splitting up. Revived in 2019, the re-formed band penned a full-length album, 2021's Punk Prayer.
