Rising Storm Review
Some may long for the frenzied sound of Raw Power. Some may dismiss the otherworldliness that reels in “Mass Production” – the closing track. But deserters will miss out on a lot of what makes The Idiot such an iconic album…the mood. […]

It was the album that started Joy Division’s first jam session, and it was the album Ian Curtis listened to before he hanged himself. The Idiot may have been Iggy Pop’s new beginning, but it’s certainly not for beginners. […]
