Reviews

I would recommend it as a valuable text that should be included on undergraduate reading lists for courses dealing with fan, music and popular cultures. Garry Crawford, BSA While most of us might have moved swiftly on and started wearing baggy jeans, there remains an enormous goth subculture, which Hodkinson, proud to count himself a part of it, analyses stylishly in this 'ethnographic study'. The Guardian Engaging. The Daily Telegraph A scholarly yet accessible text [that] successfully conveys what it means to be a Goth. Sonic Seducer The first major anthropological study of UK Goths is a priceless work. [It is a] fascinating read that I found very difficult to put down. Kaleidoscope
