Podrophenia - Once Upon a Time in Basildon

 


The latest Podrophenia rewinds to Bas-Vegas during the summer of punk, captured in the pages of Strange Stories fanzine - featuring The Vicars, The Machines, Grinder and Mik Bostik - a scene that led to Depeche Mode, Yazoo and links with The Cure.. 

Also London squat-life and sleeping in Sid Vicious' bedroom - through to Adrian's Records in the 80s. 


We bring you a world exclusive from Fitz & Sons from Dave Fitzgerald and Mick Nixon - a glam off by way of Pantherman from Steven Hastings - and a fanzine or fake-zine quiz.. Dig in DL below
