Skupina první anglické punkové vlny, vznikající pod vlivem newyorské new wave a londýnských Sex Pistols v Manchesteru v r. 1976.
Už po realizaci prvního EP Spiral Scratch (leden 1977) odchází H. Devoto a zakládá Magazine. Krátce na to dochází...
When you don't know who you are
And you're walking with a scar
In the places that are breaking down your mind
It's a complicated day
Busy people on their way
Mirrored buildings reflecting in your eyes
Sick city sometimes
Sick city in your mind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city left you way behind
Throught the paper and the trash
All the needles and the cash
Side by side with the man in the big car
Then it turns the dead of night
And you get into a fight
And the blades run down your back like superstars
Sick city sometimes
Sick city in your mind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city left you way behind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city in your mind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city left you way behind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city in your mind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city left you way behind
Now the buildings take a fall
And it tries to kill us all
In the name of something zero in your mind
Now the buildings take a fall
And it tries to kill us all
In the name of something zero in your mind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city in your mind
Sick city sometimes
Sick city left you way behind
