[kj] Rip It Up And Start Again (Book)

[Jim Harper]

Yes, yes and indeed yes.
 
I quite liked it, despite the fact that KJ don't actually get much space and are generally described as a goth band. Even so, he's obviously done a lot of listening and a lot of research. He covers acts that have been largely ignored elsewhere, and has certainly pointed me in the direction of some decent music. I don't agree with all of his conclusions or his ideas, but it's an excellent read and likely to be the only one of it's kind.

Jim.

Just received a copy of 'Rip It Up And Start Again: postpunk 1978-1984' by Simon Reynolds (publisher: Faber and Faber 2006). It has a few pages about Killing Joke. Has anyone else read it?
