definetely worth a read.
the only thing about it I didn't like was how the writer keeps slating punk music (which I also love - I usualy walk around in Buzzcocks t-shirts)
so I took some breaks from reading every now and then just to calm down!
but I'm glad I read it

that´s a shame, i´ve always been a punk-rocker at heart.
