What does it mean to be a seven inch?
It means to be a footsoldier of beauty, with joie de vivre as your creed
Commitment to socialist folk music, soul power, classical sturm und drang, rock and roll realism, pop love, gospel truth, experimental ideology, and punk creativity.
To believe in content over competence, style over content, and honesty over style.
To provide a pop-up paper theatre, a miniature masquerade, a quixotic cultural melee.
To dance and dance till the musics over
To always listen to the b-side
To create miracles in your spare time to give you consolation in your unfree time to make ridiculous claims like some puffed-up charlatan, or spurious god
"...The Seven Inches have to be one of the best kept secrets in Britain right now, though a bit Britpop. (And that Ian is a weirdo, he drinks cough medicine onstage!)"
