The Vault: Flipping Through Magazine
Not sure how we missed this, but last month, Caroline Records imported the remastered & expanded back-catalog from Magazine, the new-wave band that Howard Devoto formed after leaving the Buzzcocks. Best known for the tense “Shot By Both Sides”–a track that seemingly appears on every single punk-history collection ever made–Magazine went to some dark places, especially when the ominous keyboards bubbled up underneath; for proof, check out “A Song From Under The Floorboards,” which contains one our our favorite self-loathing opening lines:
Magazine – A Song From Under The Floorboards [MP3, link expired]
Magazine – The Light Pours Out Of Me [MP3, link expired]
