From Wikipedia….” ‘Urgh! A Music War’ acquired a cult following in the United States in the 1980s due to its frequent showings on USA Network. It was aired on VH1 Classic on October 30, 2006 as part of its Rock and Roll Picture series. The film has been released on videocassette but not on DVD. It is currently owned by its original producer, Miles Copeland (founder of IRS Records), and he has the film of three songs from each band in storage, but because of the legal issues he cannot release it. If he does some day, there’s potential for a 6 hour 2 dvd special edition.”

“This movie consisted of a series of punk and new wave songs, without narration or explanatory text. All clips were live, recorded around 1980, mainly in England and the USA. Clips were also taken from a concert in Fréjus, France with the Police, XTC, Skafish and UB40 among others.”

This is a place for Urgh fans to discuss the film and post info about theater showings, TV broadcasts, events etc. Updates or where are they now posts are welcome.
It is our hope that new members and members of the old Urghmusic group will find a home here.
