We (The Threads) are delighted to be included within this excellent Cherry Red Records collection of the Mod Revival (and 80s) era and to be alongside so many of the bands that we admired.
‘Millions Like Us’ is the first-ever box set to properly document the Mod Revival scene of the late Seventies and Eighties.
Across 100 tracks by all the key bands, the story of the Mod Revival is told, from its roots in Punk/New Wave through to its commercial heyday in 1979 with bands like Secret Affair, The Chords, The Purple Hearts and The Lambrettas and its resurrection in 1985 with The Untouchables, The Prisoners, Makin’ Time, The Moment and The Threads.
