BOOK - Journey to the Center Of the Cramps

More than a band, the Cramps are a uniquely special rockn'roll phenomenon that has endured for over 35 years.

Formed in the creative maelstrom of late 1970's New York by Ohio natives Lux Interior (Erick Purkhiser) and Poison Ivy Rorschach (Kirsty Wallace), the Cramps not only originated the psychobilly subgenre but also left behind an unsurpassable legacy of blisteringly good, primal rock'n'roll.

Journey to the Centre of the Cramps represents the definitive work on the group. Inaddition to unseen interview material from Ivy, Lux and other former band members, Journey to the Centre of the Cramps also sees the Cramps' story through to its conclusion, recounting Lux's unexpected death in 2009, the subsequent dissolution of the group and their enduring legacy.

The Cramps' history, influences and the cast of characters in and around the group are likewise explored in far greater depth.
