Description
'If This Is Spinal Tap is the quintessential rock mockumentary, Anoint My Head is the closest you'll get to that in book form.' Loz Etheridge, God is in the TV 'Anoint My Head is a great read which rips along at pace and would make an excellent dramatisation or comedy series.' Iain Key, Louder Than War 'Hilarious warts-and-all story of a Britpop band whose big ambitions did not meet their talents' Dan Carrier Camden New Journal 'Very good read. I read the book over the weekend. Some really good memories I had forgotten about. Great days. I hope it goes on to sell millions!' Saul Galpen, Nude Records 'Super-evocative, proustian and a wonderful walk down memory lane' Mark Bowen, Wichita Recordings 'This heartwarmingly tatty 'Withnail & I'-tinged must read for every lockdowned soul pining for just one more chance to see another bunch of over-ambitious sonic terrorists preening themselves in an under-ventilated gigging sweatpit.' Simon Williams, Fierce Panda Records 'A healthy measure of Nick Hornby with a dash of Adrian Mole had he joined an indie band. Just the tonic for these serious and uncertain days. Bottoms up!' Josh Levay, Pointy Birds
