Being equally at home in hardcore clubs, poetry festivals, soup kitchens, the netherworld of squats, or urine drenched dives and youthfully, defiant haunts where cultural resistance rules, they drew immediate followers. THE ANARCHIST AND THE DEVIL DO CABARET is an amazing portrayal of that tour, told with a sense of humour, a down-to-earth perception, and in the tradition of Jack Kerouac's On The Road or Henry Rollins' Get In The Van. Inspired by encounters with Europe's new multi-racial underclass - the working poor, street people, immigrants, refugees, marginalised youth, the aged, prostitutes, neo-Nazis and skinheads - this book is not merely an insider's look into the state of rock'n'roll, it is also a commentary on the state of Europe in the late 20th century.
