Zeros

:(This page is about the British band. For the American band of the same name, see Zeros(2)).
The Zeros were a punk rock band from Walthamstow, London, United Kingdom formed in 1976, consisting of:
*Phil Gaylor (drums)
*Steve Cotton (bass)
*Steve Godfrey (guitar)
The band were one of the early English punk groups, as chronicled in Henrik Poulsen's book 77: The Year of Punk and New Wave. 
Originally a trio, they were led by Steve Godfrey (guitar/vocals, b.1959, Walthamstow, London), the cousin of Jerry Shirley of Humble Pie. The two other members were Phil Gaylor (drums/vocals) and Steve Cotton (bass/vocals). They released a single called "Hungry" in November 1977 on the Small Wonder Records label. "Hungry" was No 1 in the NME punk chart. That same month, they recorded four songs, including "Hungry," for BBC Radio 1 with John Peel. Paul Miller (guitar/vocals) joined in early 1978. The same year Hugh Stanley Clark became their manager and re signed the band to "The Label". They released a second single a year later, "What's Wrong with Pop Group".
Somewhere in the 2000s, Steve Godfrey created a Myspace page, and posted The Zeros entire discography as well as a series of previously unheard recording sessions and demos.
