Based upon work and materials compiled for the acclaimed and now much sought aft
er 2007 Cramps biography A Short History of Rock'n'Roll Psychosis, Journey To Th
e Centre Of The Cramps goes far beyond being a revised and updated edition: Comp
letely overhauled, rewritten and vastly expanded, it now represents the definiti
ve work on the group. In addition to unseen interview material from Ivy, Lux and
other former band members, Journey To The Centre Of The Cramps also sees the Cr
amps' story through to its conclusion, recounting Lux's unexpected death in 2009
, the subsequent dissolution of the group and their enduring legacy. The Cramps'
history, influences and the cast of characters in and around the group are like
wise explored in far greater depth.
