TY - GEN TY - GEN T1 - Retromania : pop culture's addiction to its own past A1 - Reynolds, Simon LA - eng PP - London ; New York PB - Faber & Faber YR - 2011 UL - https://kansalliskirjasto.finna.fi/Record/fikka.2321626 AB - 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?
