Just got an album in by a band called CH3, a melodic(ish) hardcore band from California. Sleeve blurb actually credits the full moniker as Channel 3. I vividly recall a band of of the same name who had a brilliant track called I've Got A Gun. Seems they are one and the same, I always assumed they were English as the Gun EP was on the No Future label, home to The Wall , Partisans, Test Tube Babies etc. Anyone shed anymore light on them.
Song below is the album's title as well.

Channel 3's history dates back, before the emergence of 'Hardcore' They originate from the Suburban Los Angeles Punk scene of Cerritos.
Back in the early 80's they were the only American Punk band to have a record ("I've Got A Gun") released on the UK label No Future.
Their first two albums were 'Punk' but later ones were more 'Rock'
They reformed about twenty years ago and have released a couple of albums and made a documentary...
