Mark, My Words: Stop the everlasting ‘80s revival

Funny and to the point, NME's Mark Beaumont in his latest column wants the 1980s revival to end: "The ‘80s revival has lasted far longer than the original decade itself. And that wasn’t even worth the ten years it hung about...

It’s like getting wistful about the middle ages by injecting yourself with undiluted plague".
