This week we're discussing every album by Magazine. Led by vocalist Howard Devoto and guitarist John McGeoch (before he left to join Siouxsie and the Banshees), Magazine is one of the most underrated punk bands to come out of England in the late 70s. Their style, which was in large part characterized by prominent synths, was unlike any other band at the time. Best of all, the songs still hold up today.
