The Distractions: Pós-punk "esquecido" de Manchester ganhará reedição

The Distractions é conterrâneo e contemporâneo da Joy Division e chegou até a gravar um single para a Factory Records, de Tony Wilson. Mas, ao invés de ficarem na Factory, assinaram com a island Records, gravaram um álbum e algumas faixas e foram esquecidos.

Ou melhor, permaneceram como banda New Wave cult, para poucos iniciados.

Dia 20 de março, o CD duplo Nobody’s Perfect facilitará acesso ao trabalho dos ingleses.

Absolutamente tudo que gravaram no período '979-81 entrará para a coleção, independentemente de para qual selo.
