Reviews & Opinions

CLIFF WHITE, SMASH HITS, JULY 1979: With each successive release, these misguided souls seems to be regressing further back into the casualty ward that houses late-'60s brain-damage cases. They must be on a macrobiotic diet - or something. I haven't got a clue what this is all about; it's just tuneless waves of sound that could be emanating from synthesizers, guitars or fluff on the stylus, within which a distant Siouxsie appears to be auditioning for the part of Second Witch in Macbeth. I will pass no comment on the fact that their publishing company is called Pure Noise.
