UK Decay was a Luton-based band, formed out of the ashes of another local band called The Resistors, who were Steven Abbot (Abbo) guitar, Steve Harle on drums, Paul Wilson vocals, and Martin (Segovia) Smith bass. History After P.Wilson left during the spring of 1979, they changed their name and released the ?Split Single? 7? in partnership with local band Pneumania, on their own Plastic Records label, under the new name, UK Decay. There were two tracks from each band, UK Decay contributing "UK Decay" and "Car Crash", and Pneumania, "Exhibition" and "Coming Attack".
