Unknown Punk song in a movie I'm tryin' to find.

[Sean]

Does anyone know who this band is playing in the background? Sounds like The Buzzcocks, The Notsensibles and The Thought Criminals, but it's not them. It's an Aussie movie from '81 called Puberty Blues and most of the soundtrack is by Aussie groups/artists, so it may be an Aussie band. I've been lookin' for a while with no luck, so I decided to upload that specific scene in the hopes that someone online will know.

Thanks!!

well, this is not excactily a punk song, but its been haunting me ever since first time saw movie ghost world. its not on the soundtrack, but in a movie there¨s one dude with nuncha sticks just outside the crosseries, and he play th song so loud that the owner runs him out of the store...other songs in the film are excellent too, but i wonder why leave this crazy rock killer out????

@LastofmyKind_ Not sure how many of those groups were about from 1976- 1981? When I was out there in Brisbane I saw a group called "The Lazy Sods" who had an English drummer, that was back in 1995. I know there is still a minority following of Punk in Aussie, with young kids starting garage bands, but my experience with a lot of Aussie groups is that they mainly do cover songs, very few write their own material like 'No FX' for example :) Thanks for the info, I will do a bit of research on those listed and have a listen. Didn't mean to offend my antipodean cousins :) Not sure if that helps SEAN who posted the original question, tho?
