The Chosen Few

The Profile

Australian punk group noted in the review for the 1978 album Do the Manic! — raw, unpolished punk with a classic late‑70s attitude. Semi-unknown and sometimes conflated with other groups of the same name.

According to the DeBaser review, The Chosen Few are an Australian punk band whose 1978 recordings are raw and hard to find; the name is shared by other groups (including reggae acts).

An appreciative, nostalgia-tinged review of The Chosen Few's 1978 punk album Do the Manic!. The reviewer praises the band's raw, dirty, human sound and short, catchy punk songs. Recording flaws and rarity of the album are seen as charms. Recommended for fans of old‑school punk and collectors.
