King Mob Echo: English Section of the Situationist International

Anthology of King Mob and related material, compiled by Tom Vague.

"I have to say I was Impressed by them, they just had a better line of rhetoric. I was excited by what they represented but didn't fully understand what it was. It was a new way of looking at the world. You could grab whatever bits you could, like crumbs falling off a table. For us the Situationists were revolutionary artists."

Malcolm McLaren, Dazed & Confused

"The Situationists were the first people ever to provide me with a rational explanation of our irresponsible behaviour and to see everything in terms of political activity. They were much more fun, their writings were more fun, they were doing more interesting things, their pamphlets were more interesting than the boring fucking Trots."

Alan Marcuson, Days in the Life
