Dick Lucas (singer)

Dick Lucas (born 1961) is a British vocalist and lyricist of several punk rock bands. He is best known for being a member the British anarcho-punk band Subhumans, and the ska-punk band Citizen Fish that he co-founded in 1990.
Biography.
Lucas started his career as a vocalist in The Mental from March 1979 to August 1980. He then joined the Subhumans in September 1980.
With the breakup of Subhumans in the mid 1980s came another band, Culture Shock, from 1986, followed by a short silence from Lucas, after which he co-founded Citizen Fish, a ska-punk group – currently featuring Subhumans bass player Phil on guitar, the newly added Silas on drums (presently replacing original member Trotsky), and long-time collaborator Jasper on bass guitar. 
In 1995, Lucas's abstract novel Write The Way Up was published (an audio version of which was released in 2012 by Bluurg Records).
The Subhumans subsequently reunited and released their first album in 12 years on 13 September 2019, supported by a US and European tour. Other side projects have included The Bungalow Band, The Clutton Brothers, a spoken word–stand-up poetry act, and playing keyboards with friends in the Plymouth UK punk band Bus Station Loonies.
During early 2010, he contributed a spoken piece about the 7 July 2005 London bombings for Global Parasite's song "Seven Seven".
Lucas also appeared in the 2007 movie "Punk's Not Dead", where he discussed his views on punk rock and other philosophical issues.
Style.
Lucas' lyrical content ranges from his outrage and defiance at a system that had, in his perception, betrayed him, to philosophical ruminations on the nature of conformity, group-think and the individual's place in society.
Lucas' later writing has proven to be less politically oriented, and heavier on social awareness, stressing understanding between people, and active communication.
