'Germ Free Adolescents' was the title track from the debut album of punk band X-Ray Spex. Lead singer Poly Styrene (Marianne Elliot-Said) grew up in Bromley, Kent, however she had a voice "powerful enough to drill holes through sheet metal". Billboard magazine described her as the "archetype for the modern-day feminist punk".
