As a huge fan of Factory Records, this book was a must-have for my collection. It provides such a detailed account of the label's rise and fall, and I love the stories behind the artists. The writing is engaging, making it hard to put down!

Disappointed by the Layout
I was really excited to read this book but was let down by the organization of the content. It felt disjointed at times, and I struggled to follow the timeline of events. The cover art is nice, but that’s about it for me.

Interesting but Lacks Depth
I picked this up hoping for more insider information on my favorite bands from Factory Records. While it covers the basics well, I felt some sections were a bit rushed. Still, it's a decent read for fans who want to know more about the label.
