Description

The rise and fall of Some Bizzare, the label that introduced Soft Cell, Depeche Mode, and The The to the world, is a story of alternative music's early days. This book delves into the history of the label, its roster of influential artists, and the unconventional dealings of its self-styled boss Stevo Pearce. From the debut release featuring early tracks from prominent electronic musicians to the label's later roster of forward-thinking and transgressive acts, Some Bizzare played a significant role in shaping the decade's music scene. The story also explores the label's more unusual aspects, including Stevo's legendary interactions with the industry and his ability to spot talent. The book takes readers on a journey through the globe, from New York's ecstasy parties to Soho's seedy sex shows, revealing the highs and lows of Some Bizzare's time in the spotlight.
