Notes:
– Active from 1982-1987. Reformed in 2012 and played their first gig in 25 years on October 25th
– Bill Beadle’s father send their first demo to the press without the band knowing. Eventually it got some airplay and the band appeared on ITV on a show presented by David Jensen along with U2 and The Stranglers (December 1983)
– Sacrilege were notorious for their theatrical stage shows
– The band’s name was inspired by a 1954 sword-and-sandal flick named “Demetrious and the Gladiators”
