In Another World

“Glorious” * Electronic Sound *
“Curious, warm, reflective, enlightening: entirely in the spirit of their wonderful music” -- Nicola Meighan * A Kick Up The Arts *
“For a band whose mystique has only deepened in the years since Hollis’s passing, this is the document their legacy has been waiting for” -- Eric Alper * SiriusXM *
“Thomson’s book honours that mystique while at the same time attempting to decipher the glorious intensity of the music” * The List *
“[A] fascinating and stirring tribute to one of the most inscrutable bands of the ’80s … Elegantly articulates the sensuality of the band’s sound 4/5” * Classic Pop *
“Genuinely illuminating...with all the depth of detail such 'world building' entails” * The Wire *
“Thomson vividly fills the gaps with his forensic detail, deep listening and jigsaw anecdotes piecing together a picture of an inscrutable artist 4/5” * Mojo  *
“An opportunity to wonder. A proper old labour of love. It's a very good book” -- Mark Ellen and David Hepworth * Word in Your Ear *
“A pointedly personal celebration of an often insane-sounding musical visionary, whose working methods bordered on madness.  Hollis once stated, ‘I would rather hear one note than I would two, and I would rather hear silence than I would one note’, yet nevertheless, this admirable book makes plain, his music demands to be heard to this day” -- Travis Elborough * The Idler *
