For those of you that have heard of Penetration, the majority of you will have fond memories of the clear, clean and robust voice of Pauline Murray. Easily one of the best voices deriving from the punk movement back in the late seventies, it’s often noted a sincere shame that the band hailing from the north of England didn’t quite meet the celebrity of their colleagues. ‘Don’t Dictate’ was as powerful and radical as the other punk powerhouse anthems of the late seventies, if not more so. In retrospect, and with the music industry still as difficult for women to navigate as ever- hearing a woman intone those incensed lyrics at the front of a punk band remains as emotive as it was forty years ago. The fire of the band burned as quickly but as brightly as the movement itself- the band subsequently split in 1979, but reuinited back in 2000. This year they are celebrating forty years since their formation as a fully-fledged, performing outfit with a UK tour in October.

Talking with Pauline a few weeks ago, discussions over the past, present and future of the band, questions over gender, punk, and modern music today were deliberated. The full interview is available to read on our blog: www.underground-england.co.uk/news/penetration
