Is there a better Gen X music scribe than galaxy brained indie boffin Simon Reynolds?. SRs new underground rock thematic ‘Still In A Dream’ covers 1984-94, C86/Noise Pop/Shoegaze/Grunge & is the reflective younger brother to SR’s post punk guide ‘Rip It Up & Start Again’ 1/2

Sunday…. Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Throbbing Gristle’s notorious gig at the ICA. Including the opportunity to sit in a dark room & gaze into space listening to a recording of the gig. I resisted the temptation to pay £200 for the vinyl. £25 on a T instead #TG50
