It covers Joy Division, The Cure, Siouxie, Bauhaus, and more--all the classics. Because these are reprints of old articles you see how these bands were seen at the time instead of reading modern articles that look backwards with full knowledge of what they will become. Reading the articles in order really lets you watch the early goth scene unfold. Very cool reading.

You can read about it here:
