Son of a Bitch

about

Coast was a UK rock band named after the 1972 song "Coast to Coast" by Trapeze. Coast contained a singing bass player Peter "Biff" Byford, and guitarist Steve Quinn. In 1975, Coast was falling apart, and S.O.B.'s lead singer and guitarist Steve Furth left to go solo, so in November 1975 a new band was formed by S.O.B.'s Oliver, Dawson and Walker, and Coast's Byford and Quinn. Byford became the new lead singer. They adopted the name Son of a Bitch for its more aggressive tone, and they pushed toward a heavier sound. They recorded a demo known as "Tapestry" in late 1975, and gigged extensively during 1975–1978. Walker quit after a couple of years, and was replaced briefly by Dave Cowell in 1977. Former Glitter Band member Pete Gill soon replaced Cowell as drummer. In 1978, the band began negotiating with the French disco-oriented record label Carrere Records, run by Freddy Cannon in the UK. Carrere refused the band name Son of a Bitch because it would be impossible to obtain radio airplay, so the band changed their name to Saxon in July 1978. --==-- Breaking away from SAXON in 1994, guitarist GRAHAM OLIVER reunited with another SAXON founder member in bassist Steve Dawson to reform SON OF A BITCH. The name was actually taken with a purpose as it was the original pre-recording name of SAXON. Additional recruits to the band were former SAXON and MOTÖRHEAD drummer Pete Gill and American frontman Ted Bullet, previously with THUNDERHEAD. "Victim You" is the first studio album re
