Heart on My Sleeve
Featuring over a hundred and eighty works hand-picked by Attila himself, Heart On My Sleeve is a must-read compendium of social commentary, human observation and humour, all of it written with a passion and enthusiasm which only seems to grow as Attila passes through the years.
Arguments Yard
Launched into public consciousness by John Peel in the early 1980s, poet, musician, journalist and political activist Attila the Stockbroker has since spent thirty five years touring the world as a self-sustaining, one man DIY cottage industry. Having performed over three thousand gigs in twenty four countries, releasing thirty records and seven books of poetry along the way, he pauses here to relate his life story, a tale of ranting verse, punk rock and his relationship with the ever changing, increasingly corporate minded politics of the last five decades.

Skin Alley and Beyond
In this remarkable book, Krzysztof Henryk Juszkiewicz looks back on his life, reflecting on both his musical adventures through the years, and the origins of his family, who came to the UK from Poland after the conclusion of World War 2. Along the way we learn of his part in early 70s prog rock band Skin Alley; their ups and downs, highs and lows, the making of their albums, and such memorable occasions as playing the first Glastonbury and even jamming on stage with Jimi Hendrix. We are also given a glimpse into Krzysztof's brushes with the likes of Hawkwind, Rik Mayall, Nigel Planer and the Comic Strip gang, Tracey Ullman and Shakin' Stevens. This revealing and honest memoir is a treat for fans of classic rock and European history, and will delight anyone interested in a good story well told.
Crossover the Edge
During the 1980s, a time of conflict among alternative and increasingly tribal musical subcultures, an interesting compromise began to take form - partly out of necessity, partly born of the ongoing search for further unexplored extremes in the hardcore, punk and metal worlds. Blending the musical and visual elements of all three, this scene within several scenes came to be known as Crossover. Crossover The Edge contains in-depth features on over a hundred key bands from the scene's 1980s heyday, with another five hundred bands also featured.

Salad Daze
Best known as the divisive but iconic frontman of The Mission and a poster boy for the then fledgling gothic scene of the 1980s, Wayne Hussey has been making music since he was inspired to pick up a guitar by his childhood hero, Marc Bolan. As he began making his name in music with The Invisible Girls, Dead Or Alive, and The Sisters Of Mercy, Wayne was at first seduced and then ultimately corrupted, swapping the repression of his religious upbringing for its polar opposite: a lifestyle of total hedonism. From his early days raised as a Mormon to being schooled in gender bending by Pete Burns, from his move to Liverpool in the late 1970s to his remaining fanaticism with Liverpool FC, Salad Daze is an all-encompassing account of Wayne's personal and musical journey up until the formation of The Mission.
