Mark Manning was an everyday Yorkshire poet until, in the early 1980s, he found himself possessed by the spirit of Zodiac Mindwarp, High Priest of Love, International Sex God of Everything and reasonably competent tunesmith. He immediately abandoned life in Leeds and let Zodiax take him on a trip into the deepest, darkest crevices of the rock landscape with his own diabolical pop group The Love Reaction. First published in 2001, Fucked by Rock constitutes the most brutally honest critique of rock 'n' roll ever committed to paper and an instant classic.
