There are many who find it hard to believe that John Lydon could have been involved in a racist scuffle the other week, and who will be looking to their hero to prove that he's not the sort of tiresome old twit who attempts to defend unpleasant reactionary attitudes by pretending he's just so refreshingly anti-PC. He's had his chance, in an interview with the Daily Record . He starts off having a go at Pete Doherty for being a "coward": "Doherty's got trapped in a publicity campaign that has run [...]

As I gotten older, and arguably wiser, I've lost my taste for the self-destructive strain of [...]
I try and provide myself with enough musical knowledge as possible. As I've stated here many times before, I don't have the background or experience to ever be considered an expert. I know I never will, but I'm trying to at least have some basis to be able to speak about music. Sure, ask me about any buzz indie rock band of today and I could spurt off a lot of info.
