From the website of the recently resurrected blog and then print magazine: "The origins of Deviation Street go way way back to the evening of 6th June 1977 and a Rock Against Racism gig featuring The Adverts, Penetration, local band Harry Hack and The Big G and one other band from Manchester called Warsaw, who would later go under the name Joy Division which inspired 3 Bored teenagers to start a Fanzine. The name of the zine was Deviation Street a nod to a track by counter culture figure Mick Farren and his band The Deviants." Features interviews with mod band The Jam, female-fronted UK band Penetration, Generation X, New Yorkers Mink Deville and Richard Hell, and The Tubes as well as concert and record reviews.
