Steven Wells, R.I.P.
Steven Wells, the frequently profane, always opinionated writer who contributed to the likes of the NME, the Philadelphia Weekly, the Guardian (among many others), passed away earlier this week after a long battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. NME scribe James McMahon penned an obit worthy of the man known as “Swells” and the mag that includes a few selections from his archives; Wells himself filed an obituary of sorts to the Weekly shortly before his passing. Wells was 49. [NME]
