Sounds Like Punk band from Philly, released one SUPER Punk single in ' 78, ' NO RULES ' is real FAST like the RAMONES, with a sing-a-long approach by the band similiar to say U.K. SUBS 'STRANGELHOLD' but a HELL of a lot better !........this is a perfect punk .., hard and fast yet with a bit of melody in the vocals.......sings singer KENNY GORDON.....' NO RULES TODAY NO CLASS, TONITE YOUR GOING OUT IN MASQUERADE, THERE's SOMETHING TO..............' ( chorus ).....'NO RULES, NO RULES FOR U AND ME'.........'NO RULES FOR U LITTLE GIRL, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN' ..........guitar jams at the end......... ' THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR WALKIN' ' this was the a side, it is campy punk with glam roots; handclaps with maniacal laughter.....'You keep saying you've got something for me, something you call love, but confess,You've been messin' where you shouldn't have been a messin', and now someone else is gettin' all your best, These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do, one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you'..........yes this is a cover of NANCY SINATRA, it's good, but 'NO RULES' is much better.......so maybe one day those demos will see the light of day ? even though they only had one official release they did record an lps worth of music and were said to be the real thing, old photos show SID VICIOUS and JERRY NOLAN at their shows,and they also played a bit with SID as well ! their live shows had a big attraction in Philly and in N.Y. and they played at MAX's several times

FOR THE OFFICIAL PURE HELL PAGE CLICK HERE ...The motto on the swastika t-shirts designed by Malcolm McLaren will always mean just what it said: NO FUTURE FOR ANY KIND OF DICTATORSHIP!!! In 1974, on the streets of Philadelphia, a band unlike any other was formed. They called themselves Pretty Poison. The band consisted of Stinker (Kenny Gordon) on vocals, Chip Wreck (Preston Morris III) on guitar, Lenny Steel (Kerry Boles) on bass, and Spider (Michael Sanders) on drums. They had a sound so ahead of its time that the music industry was not yet ready for it. They coupled the punk sound of the New York bands of the time with a harder, faster heavy metal edge unheard before. Their unique sound was a result of Gordon's berserk choreography and Morris's needling guitar riffs, while Steel and Spider added a synchronized barrage with no nonsense execution to the arsenal. Inspired by the famous fuel-altered dragster, they changed their name to Pure Hell in 1975. Soon after, they moved to New York City where they played with bands like the New York Dolls, Sid Vicious, Wayne County and the Electric Chairs, The Dead Boys, The Stimulators, Richard Hell, The Germs, The Nuns, The Cramps and more. In 1978 Pure Hell headlined a tour of the UK, with bands like The UK Subs, Wilko Johnson, Vermilion & the Aces and more opening for them. While in the UK, their only original record was released. It was a single released by their manager Curtis Knight on his label, Golden Sphinx Records. The songs on the single were These Boots Were Made for Walking and No Rules. The single charted in the top 40 charts in the UK. During the same year, a full length album was recorded but was never released. It did not surface again for 26 years
