999 are an English punk rock band, formed in London in December 1976. 999 soon established themselves as a powerful live act on the London punk scene, and became regulars at the Hope and Anchor, Islington . Their self-financed debut single I'm Alive was well received, becoming a firm favourite in the punk clubs. On the strength of it, 999 were signed to United Artists Records around the same time as the Buzzcocks . The band's second single, 'Nasty Nasty', was cited nearly 20 years after its release as a seminal punk single.
Their self-titled album produced by Andy Arthurs, was released in March 1978. The album produced the 45's 'Me and My Desire' and 'Emergency'. The album reached No. 53 in the UK Albums Chart . The following year, the song 'Emergency'from the album appeared — alongside songs by bands including the Jam and the Stranglers — on the punk compilation 20 of Another Kind . That album reached No. 45 in the UK charts. Years later, 'Emergency' was included in Mojo magazine's list of the best punk rock singles of all time.
