About This Item

Limited circulation promotional comic book illustrating the lyrics to a pop song. Tall thin 4to. Near fine. Illus. stiff wraps. [1313]

Pulp's anthem of class consciousness, drawn by the genius who gave us Tank Girl. According to the comically Franglish introduction, "They're part of melodic continuum that began in England's dance hall during WWI. More recent points on that timeline have included The Kinks, Roxy Music, Bowie (Diamond Dogs era), The Smiths, and Blur. Pulp's songs present a very English slice of life, garnished with bathos, wit and humor.The melange includes guitars, bass, drums, violin, a very cheesy Farisa organ (how retro!) ans [sic] the inimitable vocal stylings of Mr. Jarvis Cocker." As of September 2021, we are unable to locate this rare item, given away as a mail in promo for French fans only, in North America.
