Background notes
Archive material and source history
Shit Happening formed in Edinburgh in the late 1980s. Their debut album 'Frustration' came out in 1991, with the title track becoming something of an anthem for listeners who connected with its direct, agitated energy. The band's lineup included Fraser Cathro on vocals, Steve MacEwan on guitar, Michael Reynolds on bass, and Paul Green on drums.
Other songs like 'Ienai' and 'Train' from their catalog carried that same raw, confrontational tone. They kept recording through the 90s and into the 2000s, putting out albums like 'Screaming for Silence' and 'Apathy' before 'The Last Exit' in 2006.
Their music never aimed for polish. It was more about channeling a kind of blunt frustration, which gave it a specific gravity for a certain audience. Even a cover like 'Last Christmas' took on a different, rougher edge in their hands.
