This is true, '94 was a glorious, long summer (I defied my Irish genetics and had a great tan)...while I remember '93 being rainy, grim and socially tense. There was a girl fashion trend in late autumn '94 for tartan mini skirts, thigh-high black socks and boots - no idea why I remember that...

Only things missing are Brian Rose doing roundhouse kicks behind Tate and Piers Corbyn toasting about Fogvid.

Latvia: went to Riga in the mid-2000s and ended up drifting into a crowd in a square - thought it was an open-air gig (there were bearded blokes in viking outfits chanting on a makeshift stage), but turned out to be a fascist rally. An armed policewoman with scene girl mascara totally lost...

Haven't kept up with their recordings but apparently the UK Subs were detained at LAX Airport and then deported last week. Charlie Harper once chatted up my sister after a gig in 1979 and he was in his 40s back then.

I remember an Ed Kemper interview where he said he used to go to a police bar and chat to cops working on the case - his case - and offer his own theories to them, posing as a wide-eyed amateur sleuth, while picking up their info on him after a few beers. One thing you soon learn about serial...

Do you know what it was like trying to source OG industrial records before the internet? DO YOU??? Some zine would mention Current 93, and how they were like Throbbing Gristle but with “disturbing, dark, occult themes” and “like, totally nightmare soundscapes”. OK, I was easily sold. I bought a...

Always liked this one too

Good selection. Like going to Bangkok and ordering pork pie and ketchup.

No, the one about Idi Amin.

When I met you you were just sixteen Pulling the wings off of flies When an old lady got hit by a truck I saw the wicked gleam in your eyes

Always liked the 4-Skins' contradictory "Just left school, you can't find no work / Be a building labourer or an office clerk"

I pick up the phone / I dial any number I get out my muscle / It's a twitching cucumber

I disliked Jeremy Cooper’s ‘Brian’ so much, I was inspired to do this…plus it’s been a slow afternoon. I don’t rewatch films that much and treat them as temporary entertainment (unless it’s some harrowing documentary) - eyes glaze over at director talk - but these are what come to mind: ESCAPE...

Last night I drank quite a few 10/10-quality pints of Guinness at the Phoenix Inn Ale House in Inverness, all excellently poured. Popped into a kebab shop for a chicken shish and saw a fight outside: totally wankered bloke come-on-thening two others, before one swept his leg and panelled him in...

Obviously not aimed at you, but just read it and thought it was one of the worst books I've read since 2020. Baffled by the rave reviews. I actually hate it, lol.
