This is memorial device : an hallucinated oral history of the post-punk music scene in Airdrie, Coatbridge and environs, 1978-1986
Keenan, David, 1971-2018
Books
Ross Raymond and Johnny McLaughlin are two fanboys dedicated to the Airdrie post-punk scene of the early '80s - the glory years - when anything and everything seemed possible. Looking back on that time - the people, the bands, the underground legends - they piece together a story which has at its core Memorial Device, the greatest band you've never heard of. Featuring a cast of misfits, artists, drop-outs, small-town visionaries and musicians, 'This is Memorial Device' is a dark, witty novel depicting a moment where art and the demands it makes are as serious as life itself.
