Sub Pop: The True Story



Just been interviewed for a forthcoming oral history of grunge, and it reminded me I've been meaning to post this up on my blog for quite a while.

Reprinted from Plan B #35, many thanks to designer Andrew Clare, editors Louis Pattison and Frances Morgan, transcriber Natalie Walker, photographers Charles Peterson, Stephen Sweet and Ian Tilton, and anyone else who helped.

  1. I really enjoyed that article...i see your getting a bit of a kicking over at DiS...there's one problem with the inetrnet and free speech ahahah just cos everyone has the freedom to espouse their opinion all the time doesn't mean they should - cos people largely talk massive amounts of shit.

    nice one.
