Unknown to the band at the time the name was chosen, GBH is derived from the British legal phrase, Grievous bodily harm. Another band was using the name, so they added Charged onto GBH. It began with Colin (Col) Abrahall on vocals, Colin (Jock) Blyth on guitar, Ross Lomas on bass, as well as their first drummer Andrew Williams. The band mostly toured in England during the 1980s, however they did make several excursions out of the island, including several tours to the United States. Some of their most famous shows that they played during the 1980s were at the 100 Club in Oxford Street in London.

There was a City Baby, Attacked By Rats.
Their little teeth, they gnawed and hacked ..
He grew and he fought back ..
put those rats back in their traps.
City Babys .. Revenge
Survive he did, but only just.
Now for revenge, he has a lust.
No rats are safe, when he is there.
A Pied Piper .. with a grudge to bear.
