The Meteors are an English psychobilly band formed in 1980. In August 1981, the band were signed to Island Records and recorded their first full-length album, The Case Of The Meteors In Heaven, and 7" single, "The Crazed". The band were interviewed by No Class fanzine at The Marquee on the night of the live-recording of the track In Heaven.

On their second album, 1983's Wreckin' Crew, the Meteors sound a good bit more billy than psycho; Fenech's lean and limber guitar chords twang just fine (and betray a supplementary fondness for surf music), but they lack a certain inherent menace, and as hard as he tries to sound evil while he swears, bellows, and name-checks classic horror movies, this. isn't significantly more disturbing than, say, the Stray Cats trying to play a Halloween spook show. But as British rockabilly of the period goes, Wreckin' Crew is pretty good stuff; freed by their ghoulish obsessions.

Wreckin’ Crew Lyrics. Well, it's night time in the city Let's all go out to play Their ain't no-one can catch us Couldn't stop us anyway We do just what we wanna do Get outta the way, we're the Wrecking Crew. The city as you know it's gone We're all that's left alive We prowl around the streets in packs Do what we can to survive We're gonna do just what we wanna do Get outta the way, we're the Wrecking Crew. We're the Wrecking Crew We do what we must do You've blown away our lives Killed our lovers and our wives.

Acting as an overture to the album by introducing names like Pandora, Persephone that appear in othersongs on the album, the tracks on Treasure were not just pulled out of mythological tales but happened to feature in the everyday environment. They’re beautiful words, said Liz Fraser in 1985. It’s strange; there’s three buildings around Hammersmith, on the way from the Odeon to The Riverside, with names off Treasure. Filmed four days earlier on 13th January, The Meteors were captured in their last gig with Mick White on bass. Three of the numbers are featured in the video here: WRECKIN' CREW, THE HILLS HAVE EYES and WILD THING. The video also includes an interview with P. Paul Fenech in the middle of his visit to a tattoo parlour.
