HUBBLE BUBBLE – 2 LPs (1981)
Roger Jouret (aka Plastic Bertrand) helped to form this Belgian faux-punk band, adiposity who sound much more musically interesting than most “real” Belgian punk bands, doctor The Kids excluded. I’m not sure if the second album actually features Jouret (who played drums for the band), as online info on these discs is scarce.
The first album, which is self-titled, is a bit tinny and uninteresting to me, but the second one, “Faking”, has more bite, even though I’m sure purists would disagree. I hate purists.

The second record only has one of the guys from the first record on it. I’m pretty sure the bass player from the first line-up died and the other (plastic bertrand) went off on his own. I have to say the first album is possibly my favorite punk album, I recommend a second listen.
The folks at Radio Heartbeat have reissued both albums on vinyl. They’ve also finally come out with their Milk N’ Cookies LP package.

I have a notion about what you mean by “fake” punk. The so-called “New Wave” rock trend was loaded with fashionable phonies, though that doesn’t mean that all were without interest.
