Getting The Fear

was a short-lived English post-punk band formed in the mid-1980s by ex-members of The Southern Death Cult. Featuring Barry Jepson, David 'Buzz' Burrows, and Aki Haq Nawaz Qureshi, with Paul ‘Bee’ Hampshire on vocals, the band blended minimalistic rhythms with psychedelic influences, and gained attention for their dark, brooding sound and themes, including references to Charles Manson.
