V.V.A.A. - Lipstick Traces LP (1993)



In his 1989 book Lipstick Traces: A Secret History of the 20th Century, Greil Marcus attempted to trace the situations, occurrences and movements that led to Rotten's shriek for anarchy, a scream of discontent and longing for something else.

This album is the soundtrack or audio companion to the book.
