Sid Vicious s brief life epitomised all that is rotten and abusive in the rock world. Malcolm Butt exposes the degradation of Vicious s childhood, his introduction into the world of the Sex Pistols, his obsession with violence and descent into heroin-induced paranoia. He unearths a life taken to extremes, and ultimately destroyed by the image of punk rebellion which Vicious died fulfilling. Sid Vicious did it his way and as this book shows, the only way was out.
