A Guide to the Cults, Great Britain, 1980

In case you find all these new tribes a bit confusing, the Mirror provides a nice simple synopsis. And as a special service to all our readers we reprint this invaluable guide.


Guide to the cults
  • SKINHEADS: Have convict-style cropped hair and wear bovver boots. Dance the Moonstomp to reggae music. Enjoy fighting.
  • MODS: Very clean. Wear mohair suits, ride scooters and enjoy Tamla Motown music.
  • BOWIES: Imitate David Bowie in dress and musical taste.
  • RUDE BOYS: Wear pork pie hats and trilbys. Follow ska music. Some are enthusiastic vandals.
  • PUNKS: Out to shock through their appearance and behaviour. Have anarchist leanings.
  • ROOTS BOYS: West Indian-based movement. Smart dressers, good dancers, and anti-police.
