' Formed in late 1981 out of the ashes of The Last Resort.
The Warriors have been a front runner for the oi scene and with each album have stepped away from the last resort banner and have made a name for them self in the punk and oi scene.
The Warriors are and always will be a none political band that stands for pride not prejudice. '

"Shape of Things to Come" is a song written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil from the film Wild in the Streets, performed by the fictional band Max Frost and the Troopers on their 1968 album Shape of Things to Come, featuring a lead vocal by Harley Hatcher.

The song was produced by Mike Curb for the exploitation film Wild in the Streets, where actor Christopher Jones lip syncs to Hatcher's vocal.
A young Richard Pryor portrayed the drummer in Jones's band.
The film was released on May 29, 1968.
Concurrent with the film's release, the song appeared as a single on Tower 419; it was backed by another song from the film, "Free Lovin'" (written by Guy Hemric and Paul Wibier).

The song remained on the US Billboard charts for a total of 12 weeks and on the RPM charts for 12 weeks.

Cor, from Slade to the Rich Kids. I thought Jeff Beck did it too but I may be assuming wrong?😊
I think you are talking about ''Shapes Of Things'' which is a different song. Originally recorded by the Yardbirds and a few years later Jeff Beck did an incredible remake on his solo debut album ''Truth''.
Yay, you are a Bank of knowledge. 😅 Thanks for the information. Yes, Jeff's album was great.
Max Frost cover… sort of
