Lydia Lunch Latest News

Call Of The Wyld- Review of 2011
  The Good Natured - C.O.T.W. Band of the Year So that’s 2011 then. Another year packed with excellent performances. Back in January I first made contact with Insect Guide, a marvellous bunch who made a tiny room above a Camden pub into a very privileged place to be….

I wander from stage to stage watching musicians huddled around their equipment and looking a bit baffled. There’s not a lot of music being played. After...

With less than 48 hours left of 2009, I can finally reveal (to this lonely audience of pretty much myself) my favourite article and interview of 2009. Given the opportunity to interview Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo - twice, once on the phone and once in person - might as well be the climax of my writing intentions. Getting Sonic Youth on the cover of a magazine may as well signal the end of my...
