Reviews
"Refreshingly unfussy for music writing, and [the author] wisely steps back to allow those who were there to tell their own stories." -Daniel Gray, The Skinny, "Howard Devoto . . . the man who introduced a new literacy not just into punk but into rock as a whole. Remarkable lyrics, traditional, but poisonous to the usual pop-line clichés." -Paul Morley, NME.com, "Chase has a done a fine job here in not only securing interviews with the members, but also in setting out their story in a clear and concise manner." - The Crack Magazine, "There were few more respected groups than Magazine . . . provocative image-mongering, a sophisticated sense of what the future might look like, a thrilling metallic power . . . formidable. After songs like these, there really wasn't anything left to prove." -The Guardian, "There were few more respected groups than Magazine . . . provocative image-mongering, a sophisticated sense of what the future might look like, a thrilling metallic power . . . formidable.
