From "Record Mirror" Sept 16 1978. #PolyStyrene #XRaySpex #punk #print #magazines

A two-page magazine spread. The left page is a black and white photo of punk singer Poly Styrene with her typical punky accessories. The photo is painted in some areas with red, yellow and blue, including her lips, eyebrows and scarf. Beginning on the left page and extending all the way across the right page, the text "identity crisis" appears in large, bold, lowercase sans serif font, with a series of four color photos of Poly running through the center. The whole thing is surrounded by the text of the article.

This cool video is locked up in the Zuckerverse...
...but the theme of Poly Styrene's work in 1977 is pretty relevant to what I have seen as the M'don community.

Video reposted from @a.sense.of.style
X Ray Spex performing “Identity” at rehearsal rooms in London in September 1977.

“Identity!

Identity is the crisis, can’t you see?
Identity, identity
When you look in the mirror, do you see yourself?
Do you see yourself on the TV screen?
Do you see yourself in the magazine?
When you see yourself, does it make you scream?

Identity is the crisis, can’t you see?
Identity, identity
Yeah!

Identity is the crisis, can’t you see?
Identity, identity
When you look in the mirror, do you smash it quick?
Do you take the glass and slash your wrists?
Did you do it for fame? Did you do it in a fit?
Did you do it before you read about it?

Identity is the crisis, can’t you see?
Identity, identity
Yeah!”
