I fell in love the very first night and tore Jagger from my wall. Since then I’ve ate, slept, drank, danced, and made love to their sound. I just hope it can go on because if it doesn't then neither will I. – Debbie Caen

The driving pulsating beat takes my breath away. The screaming guitars tear at my insides. The whirling maelstrom lifts me higher and higher. Not turning his eyes from the screen a young boy cranes to kiss me. A sudden stab of white light bleaches my retina; was there a life before the Falling Spikes? –Susan Dunn...


From the Falling Spikes album. Talk about fandom.

which Falling Spikes album are you talking about? The only album i know of where that name is used is the Screen Tests one, does it come with an insert?

They're on the back of the album.

Note that these were not casual fans, but part of the factory crowd
Susan Dunn = Susan Bottomly
Debbi Caen, aka “Debbie Dropout" was Malanga's girlfriend at one time

A (now) unsettlingly expensive boot. One that, for some reason, i've never owned. In the end I settled for a CD – with those quotes just about legible.

Good to know who the quotes came from.
