From Derby , England, Anti-Pasti were part of the second wave of punk of the early 1980s. The group were formed from a local outfit called the Scrincers, and comprised Dugi Bell on guitar, Martin Roper on lead vocals, Russell Maw and Eddie Barke (aka Edmund Sonuga-Barke ). Barke and Maw soon quit. Maw went on to play for the Allies, Aftermath UK and the Egyptian Kings . Barke went on to become a notable cognitive neuroscientist. With the addition of Stu Winfield on bass and Stan Smith on drums, they released their debut EP, Four Sore Points , on their own Dose record label. They played many gigs in and around Derby, most notably The Cosmo Club and The Ajanta, and soon built up a large local following supporting bands such as The Clash and U.K. Subs .
