Few things tell us more about ourselves than the music we listen to, a fact that Tom Cox has demonstrated brilliantly in his acclaimed Observer column, The Lost Tribes of Pop. Extended from that column, Cox's beautifully illustrated book presents a unique and hilarious vision of the current pop climate, via the people who really make it what it is: the fans. From Dave, the Old School Goth, and Charlie, the iPod Twit, to Nancy, the Rave Mom, and Margot, the First-time Gigger, LOST TRIBES is an endlessly entertaining and curious mix of social stereotypes, in all their flawed, obsessive, identity-searching glory. Some are idiotic. Some are lovable. Some are all too painfully familiar. All of them are unforgettable. There are plenty of books about people behind the music. THE LOST TRIBES OF POP is different: it's a book about the people in front of it. It's the work of a major writing talent, and a must-have for any music fan on your Christmas list.
