The Blitz Club – Steve Strange And Rusty Egan Present the Official Blitz Club Website
Martin Rushent RIP (3 January 1948 – 4 June 2011) Its with great sadness that we receive the news that Martin Rushent died on Saturday. Steve pays tribute, "Martin one was not only a genius but as a 17 yr old making his first record he was a true role model, inspiration and guiding figure. He signed our first record 'Tar' to his record label and for us, started the ball rolling. We recorded our first album at his studio and he was working with us on new material.The Same Mistakes
It remains one of the great mysteries of the age. Like who built the pyramids, or what was the purpose of Stonehenge. How did Phil Oakey come up with Dare!
El "Corte de pelo Número 100" capturados en directo poco antes de la marcha de su lider y compositor, Nick Heyward. Habían dado la campanada ese mismo año con uno de los LP's más recordados de los 80's, "Pelican West" (y su imagen a lo "Club de los poetas muertos"), y una arrolladora serie de sencillos -"Love Plus One", "Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)", "Fantastic Day"...- radiantes y luminosos. En plena gloria, Nick abandonó el grupo para iniciar su propia carrera en solitario, la cual nunca ha dado los frutos esperados. Haircut One Hundred, evidentemente, no se recuperaron de la perdida y se disolvieron tras un segundo LP, "Paint And Paint" (1983), que pasó sin pena ni gloria.

I'm going through old posts at the moment and fixing videos that YouTube have deleted and resizing the ones that still work.

For fans of Joy Division, this trio hailing from Pesaro, Italy is a must listen. Their dark indie sound is reminiscent of the stark moodiness of Ian Curtis and with their minimal guitar lines and heavy bass.

The original idea for Record Store Day was conceived by Chris Brown, and was founded in 2007 by Eric Levin, Michael Kurtz, Carrie Colliton, Amy Dorfman, Don Van Cleave and Brian Poehner as a celebration of the unique culture surrounding over 700 independently owned record stores in the USA, and hundreds of similar stores internationally. This is the one day that all of the independently owned record stores come...
