Mark Andrews: Paint My Name in Black and Gold (2021, Unbound)

Fine, but probably over-long

Mostly enjoyable recounting of the rise of TSOM up to the first big split. Interesting to learn more about the Leeds music scene of the time, and discover that the March Violets were contemporaries. The book does drag after a while as it becomes a bit too 'blow by blow' for my liking, and the endless drug references may be accurate but I found them increasingly tiresome.

Unrelated to the content of the book, it's hard to recommend buying it owing to the ongoing Unbound/Boundless, er, situation.
