About This Item
Orange Vinyl. Enduringly credible, Magazine have always been the music connoisseur's choice; frequently name checked by some of the most gifted musicians of recent years including Radiohead, Morrissey, Jarvis Cocker, U2, Johnny Marr and MGMT. NME. Com went so far as to included Magazine in a poll as one of the most influential bands of all time. Created by frontman, Howard Devoto - who co-formed Buzzcocks with Pete Shelley - Magazine's sound focused on the double barrels of Dave Formula's swirling keyboards and John McGeoch's ahead-of-it's-time innovative guitar work, underpinned by Barry Adamson's pulsing yet deviously irregular basslines. Atop of this sat Howard Devoto's lyrics. Leading the vanguard of post-punk, their released four groundbreaking albums before disbanding. 2011's No Thyself, released following a 2009 reformation, is repressed for the first time on colored vinyl and features unseen images and new notes from band members compiled and curated by Rory Sullivan-Burke. Album Tracks 1. Do the Meaning 2. Other Thematic Material 3. The Worst of Progress 4. Hello Mister Curtis (With Apologies) 5. Physics 6. Happening in English 7. Holy Dotage 8.
