Pop will repeat itself: museums, reunions, rock docs, re-enactments -- Total recall: music and memory in the time of YouTube -- Lost in the shuffle: record collecting and the twilight of music as an object -- Good citations: the rise of the rock curator -- Turning Japanese: the empire of retro and the hipster international -- Strange changes: fashion, retro and vintage -- Turn back time: revival cults and time-warp tribes -- No future: punks reactionary roots and retro aftermath -- Rock on (and on) (and on): the never-ending fifties revival -- Ghosts of futures past: sampling, hauntology and mash-ups -- Out of space: nostalgia for giant steps and final frontiers -- The retroscape (slight return) -- The shock of the old: past, present and future in the first decade of the twenty-first century.;We live in a pop age gone loco for retro and crazy for commemoration. Band re-formations and reunion tours, expanded reissues of classic albums and outtake-crammed box sets, remakes and sequels, tribute albums and mash-ups ... But what happens when we run out of past? Are we heading toward a sort of cultural-ecological catastrophe, where the archival stream of pop history has been exhausted? Retromania is the first book to examine the retro industry and ask the question: Is this retromania a death knell for any originality and distinctiveness of our own?

Thanks to my editors Lee Brackstone and Mitzi Angel for their support throughout the process and their invaluable suggestions, which contributed greatly to the finished result. Thanks also to Denise Oswald, who originally signed the book in America.
Thanks to my agents Tony Peake and Ira Silverberg for getting this project airborne.

A book like this does not emerge out of a vacuum. Ideas have been catalysed and thinking sharpened through countless conversations over the years, which have taken place through print and blog back-and-forth, via email and in face-to-face discussion (and in some cases go back to long before I ever considered writing a book on this subject). Big up to Mark Fisher, Matthew Ingram, Carl Neville, Dan Fox, Paul Barnes, Michaelangelo Matos, Anwyn Crawford, Sam Davies, Nicholas Katranis, Paul Kennedy, Owen Hatherley, Mike Powell, Tim Finney, Julian House, Jim Jupp, Ian Hodgson, Seb Roberts, Robin Carmody, Geeta Dayal, Patrick McNally, Andy Battaglia, Adam Harper, Alex Williams, Peter Gunn, John Darnielle and doubtless others I am forgetting.
