GOD SAVE THE QUEEN ,AND HER FASCIST REGIME


"Much has been written about the Sex Pistols. Much of it has either been sensationalism or journalistic psychobabble. The rest has been mere spite. This book is as close to the truth as one can get ... This means contradictions and insults have not been edited, and neither have the compliments, if any. I have no time for lies or fantasy, and neither should you. Enjoy or die." JOHN LYDON

Rotten
No Irish – No Blacks – No Dogs

John Lydon with Keith & Kent Zimmerman

Punk has been romanticised and embalmed on TV, in books and on the catwalk. An English youth revolt that became a world-wide fashion statement, punk’s idols were the Sex Pistols, and Johnny Rotten was its sneering antichrist. Seventeen years later, John Lydon (aka Rotten) looks back at himself, the Pistols and the ‘no future’ disaffection of their time. More than just a music book, Rotten is a history of punk: angry, witty, poignant and crackling with energy. Malcolm McClaren, Sid Vicious, Chrissie Hynde, Billy Idol, the Britain of the late ‘70s, the Pistols’ creation and collapse – all are here, in perhaps the best book ever written about youth culture, by one of its most notorious figures.
