About this artist
In 1979, The Raincoats helped shape the timeless notion that punk is what you make it to be - an act of raw expression, not any one sound. Their anarchy was poetic.
The group’s debut album ‘The Raincoats’, which Kurt Cobain named “wonderfully classic scripture”, was released 40 years ago by Rough Trade at its radical beginnings, setting a crucial precedent for feminist work within a DIY context.
