The Killermeters began as a punk band in 1977 when, like thousands of others across the country they swapped their clothes, modified their Rock/R'n'B sound and took a lot of speed. They were the best and most energetic band in the industrial Yorkshire town of Huddersfield and played all the club and pub venues in the North. Influenced by Dr Feelgood, The Killer Meters' (as they were known at that stage) main attraction was bass player Vic Szczesnowicz (his punk monitor was Vic Vomit). Their lead/rhythm guitar player was Mick Moore who worshipped Keith Richards and the new line-up expanded to include two more musicians, the brothers Sid & Tony Ruttle.
