HAMMERSMITH GORILLAS

and over the years I’ve watched her take the grit of that old world and use it as a hammer to fashion this present place into a more livable space

An uneasy but always compelling read

it was the Detroit scene - along with a handful of other cities - that cultivated the music's grassroots aesthetic before most cultural hot spots around the globe even knew what the music was about
