The Nips were a band that played in and around London between 1977 and 1980, best known for their unique musical blend, attitude, and sense of humor. They've been labeled as punk, rockabilly, mod, R&B, ted, indie, and many other things, none of which completely describe who they were.

At the start, the Nipple Erectors consisted of Shane MacGowan (vocals), Shanne Bradley (bass), Roger Towndrow (guitar) and Gerry Mcllduff (drums). Just like any other punk band of the time period, the Nipple Erectors were an original bunch dressed in tacky clothes and had developed a sound all their own. Their style was regarded as punkabilly. Not exactly punk, not exactly rockabilly, but an crazy mixture of the two. Shane and Shanne were the members who originaly put the band together.In June of 1978, the Nipple Erectors recorded their first single, "King of the Bop." "Nervous Wreck" was on the B-side. At that same session they recorded "Stavordale Road N5" and "So Pissed Off" which were not released until the release of "Bops, Babes, Booze and Bovver" (singles collection LP, released in 1987).

After having released their first single, the eager band played more shows, succeding in the developement in a nice sized local following. Deciding the Nipple Erectors was too corny a title for the band , they shortened their name to "The Nips." Then going by their new name, they released a second single, "All the Time in the World" w/ B-side "Private Eye" also on the Soho label, near the end of 1978.

The next couple of years saw a change in the band line up and two more singles were released as well as a live recorded LP "Only the end of the Beginning" (1980). According to the "Bops, Babes, Booze and Bovver" record folder, the line up had changed from Roger Towndrow to Gavin Dougles (guiter) and from Gerry Mcllduff to a guy named Grinny (drums). In addition to their live LP from 1980, they released yet another single, "Gabrielle" w/ B-side "Vengeance" on Chiswik Records. "Gabrielle" was sort of a poppier love ballad which wasn't all that bad but it didn't make it to the top of the charts like the band had hoped for. The B-side, "Vengeance" on the other hand was sort of a "You screwed my girlfriend, so I'm gonna break your head" type of song. Their last single "Happy Song" w/ B-side "Nobody" to Love" was released in 1981 on Test Pressing Records and was produced by the well known singer of the "Jam" Paul Weller.
