Four compulsive fucked up teenagers called Thee Hypnotics on a musical rampage at Dingwalls, Camden, London, in June 1988 as captured by Craig Wagstaff.

shindig-magazine.com: "Echoing the spirit of the Detroit Rock Revolution of The MC5 and The Stooges they were completely mesmerising to both see and hear: oozing androgynous sexuality (not unlike Mick Jagger in Performance or the pre-booze Jim Morrison) theirs was a sound and style that was both singular and appealing, completely bereft of the dull attitude of 1989. This wasn’t another bedsitter indie band or aging punk act. It was a youthful alternative. What ended as the ultimate rock ’n’ roll tragedy, a journey full of near misses, derailments and death began with childhood friends discovering music together... "It wasn’t about fashion, being part of a musical trend or money. It was soul. Thee Hypnotics may not have bought us houses in the sun… but we made REAL music. I still meet fans on my travels today who have been inspired by us… We were genuine.” Jim Jones, singer
