No Thyself
Magazine are an English post-punk group active from 1977 to 1981,
then reformed in 2009.
Now one of Britain's finest post-punk outfits led by Howard Devoto
are back with their first album of new material since 30 years.
Devoto originally co-formed Buzzcocks with Pete Shelley after the
pair travelled down to London to see the Sex Pistols in early 1976
and promoted the now legendary Manchester Lesser Free Trade Hall
gigs. Devoto left in 1977, after releasing the seminal Spiral
Scratch EP, and created Magazine. Magazine went on to release four
groundbreaking LPs before parting company in 1981 and have been
cited as influences on the likes of Morrissey, Jarvis Cocker, U2,
Muse and, most notably, Radiohead.
