Their pioneering debut album The Crack was released on Virgin that autumn and is rightly regarded as one of the most important releases of the immediate post-punk – and indeed punk – era. Their classic debut single ‘In A Rut’ was released at the start of 1979 on People Unite Records, the label owned by friends and neighbours MISTY IN ROOTS. Support at all shows comes from THE PROFESSIONALS.Ĭoming together in the West London district of Southall in 1977, The Ruts sound fundamentally fused rabble-rousing punk with the dub-reggae influence of their surroundings. The tour takes in 17 dates across the UK and Ireland during February and March, including a London show at Shepherds Bush Empire. THE RUTS DC have announced a major tour for the New Year, celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the classic album The Crack.
