SU London’s British Music and the Media course has a little something for everyone: scandal, controversy, music history. And punk. Former Sex Pistol Glen Matlock visited Faraday House to meet students and share stories about the birth of punk (as a music genre and subculture) and discuss the resulting clash with political and media forces in the 1970s.
