  Nick Kent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nick Kent (born December 24, 1951) is a British rock critic.
Kent´s best work tries to explain from a cynical point of view the lifes of rock and roll musicians that risked their sanity and personal health in order to make their art.
His style, dirty and cold as Chandler`s, vibrates with images of self destruction and ultimate compassion that trascend the “rock criticism” tag, exploring the tragedy of being a true artist in the late twentieth century.

 Nick Kent - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
Nick Kent was one of Britain's most renowned and, sometimes, notorious rock journalists in the '70s, when he was a regular contributor to -New Musical Express.
Kent perhaps got a little too involved in the lifestyle of the musicians he was covering, and by the mid '70s had enough problems with hard drugs that it was adversely affecting his writing and career.
Kent met the Sex Pistols and has written that he helped redirect their interests from the Small Faces and '60s pop oldies to pre-punkers like the Stooges and Modern Lovers.

Kent has a side to his history as sordid and generally unsavory and sometimes downright hilarious as anyone described in this book." Pop describes Kent as the ultimate "Keef" Richards wannabe, "hospital thin, with a perpetually dripping bright red nose caused by an equally perpetual drug shortage...and an abiding interest in all dirt.
To Kent's credit, he's also got a knack for fl comedy, which saves the book from becoming merely a dreary recitation of various forms of depravity.
In "Sid Vicious­­the Exploding Dim-Wit," Kent goes out of his way to differentiate between a talented, self-destructive type like Richards, and a no-talent, self-aggrandizing media creation like Vicious (perhaps a blueprint for many of today's cartoonish "punk" retreads) and his girlfriend, Nancy Spungen.

Nick Kent walks on the wild side with Keef, Sid and Eminem — and returns a hero!
But the decades he’s spent hanging out with bands like the Rolling Stones (sometimes seeming like a colony of Keith Richards) give his articles and interviews the authentic perspective of a sharply precise, insightful fly on the piss-stained wall of rock & roll.
As a 1970s staff writer for London’s New Musical Express, Kent developed a specialty for writing about mainstream artists on the fringe, musicians who stared into the abyss.

There is no bass-player, which can sometimes be a little aurally disconcerting, although on a good night the kicking-mule of a bass drum coupled with the two guitarists' attention to working on the lower frets of their instruments compensates more than adequately.
