Warzone Collective

The punks of Warzone took a stance which was indifferent to religion and anyone was welcome at the social centre, whether they were atheist, Catholic or Protestant.

[3] After the Warzone Collective formed in 1984, a social centre with a café, rehearsal space and a screen printing room known as Giro's was set up in 1986.

[4] Warzone became a fixture for touring bands, including Bluetip, Godflesh, Hard Skin, Jawbreaker and Los Crudos.

Warzone was similar to many other self-managed projects worldwide such as the 1 in 12 Club in Bradford and the 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley.

It also put on documentary film nights and provided a meeting space for different groups, for example pro-choice and guerilla gardening.
