This week our Fanatic Freak Flag is at half mast as we say goodbye to Poly Styrene, great vocalist of X Ray Spex, who passed away last Monday from breast cancer. The band was one of the first on London’s break out Punk Rock scene and also one of the best. The band never recorded much, one iconic album and a few b-sides and then that was all. When the music is as good as theirs was, that’s really all you need.
