Description: It's 1978 and Nick Du Pont one - time PR man to Sixties rock behemoths the Helium Kids is back in London and bent on founding his own record label. A new kind of music - sharp hard and dangerous - is bursting onto the airwaves on both sides of the Atlantic and Nick wants a slice of the action - in particular the work of The Flame Throwers the most provocative assemblage of street - smart desperadoes ever to hail from downtown Los Angeles. Picking up from where the highly - praised Rock and Roll is Life (2018) left off this is the story of Resurgam Records and the personal traumas and tragedies that attended its coruscating rise - until the time when as so invariably happens the dancers shuffle to a halt and the music stops. Taylor's 1,000 - watt satire is set half in the real rockbiz Philip Norman has observed and 'half in an imaginary one whose monsters are just as believable - and unbelievable. A near - narcotic treat.
