we’re so famous by jamie clarke

if i could recommend one book for shampoo fans this would be it.
in fact, i would be highly surprised if jamie clarke doesn’t have a copy of ‘bouffant headbutt’ lurking somewhere in his record collection.
i first read this when it was released in 2001 and have re-read it a couple of times since then. unfortunately it never really got the credit it deserved mainly because, much like shampoo in this country, it never really fit with any obvious audience. too pop for the over 20’s and too nostalgic for the teens. like shampoo it is a lot of fun but with a pretty dark edge.
to quote brett easton-ellis

Imagine Britney Spears narrating The Day of the Locust as a gentle fable and you’ll get the idea.

have a read of the excerpts below then go and get hold of a copy NOW.

delicious japanese import cd

apologies for the crappy quality - my scanner is on the blink but as soon as i get it working i will re-do these. there is a lyric sheet included which i will scan and i’m also planning to transcribe them (along with all the other lyrics i STILL haven’t added to the site…!)

mixed bag of new pics

more rare packaging

white dog poo

look what i spotted on my holiday’s!!

apparently you don’t see it here anymore because of dog’s chewing on bones less (since BSE)
for a moment i felt as if i’d been transported to 1988…
