Post punk is dead. But before everyone bins their JOY DIVISION tote bags, one thing needs to be said: it`s better that way! Post punk wasn’t created to be alive or to represent vitality. Post punk was, is and will always be a gaze into the void, an echo of a broken world which possibly won`t be the same tomorrow. Back in the 80s, tortured crossover artists such as Curtis, Coleman and Smith transformed the atmosphere of an unsure morning into sound and did what THEN COMES SILENCE do nowadays.
CITY FIXX was a bunch of rock and roll ragamuffins, coming from Rockville, Maryland, armed with some of the best Glam/Sleaze anthems you’ve never heard and they had Kim Fowley (Runaways) in their corner. Sounding like a delicious blend of Faster Pussycat, Guns ‘N’ Roses with a hint of Poison, the likes of ‘Shatterbone City’, ‘Blood’ and ‘Last Romance’ are irrefutable proof of this band’s prowess.
