Críticas: Steve Strange was head boy of the new romantic movement. He ran the best clubs in London and defined the glitzy banality of the era. With Midge Ure, he formed Visage which became one of the biggest bands of the time selling millions of records and gaining tabloid notoriety. Blitzed! recounts the rise and fall of the Blitz Kid himself from the excess of the early Eighties: the clubs, the people, the music, the money, to his time spent recovering in Ibiza and India; the subsequent steady decline into cocaine and heroin abuse and his rise back to sanity. He unflinchingly tells how he pulled himself back from the brink. Strange now manages a band, is clean, is re-recording Visage tracks and is ready to tell his amazing story.
