Bio: Formed out of boredom and as a critic against society in September 1981 as Scram and became W.O. III in 1982. In January 1983 the lineup and bandname changed and gigs were done under the name Glorious Death. All songs were written by Harry and Ron and have a strong political influence. Did concerts with fellow citizens Idijøtz and especially Stanx with whom they shared a rehearsalroom.
