Among the noise and clamour of the Britpop era, Blur co-founder
Graham Coxon managed to carve out a niche to become one of the most
innovative and respected guitarists of his generation - but it
wasn't always easy. Graham grew up as an Army kid, moving
frequently in his early years from West Germany to Derbyshire and
Winchester before settling in Colchester, Essex. A shy child, he
had a thing for eating soil and drawing intense visions; his
anxiety was tempered by painting and a growing love of music. These
twin passions grew into obsessions, and as he honed his artistic
skill at school, Goldsmiths and beyond, his band with school friend
Damon Albarn, fellow student Alex James, and a drummer called Dave
Rowntree began to get noticed. But there are things they don't tell
you before you get famous. There are monsters out there. And some
may even be lurking inside yourself. Verse, Chorus, Monster! is an
intimate, honest reflection on music, fame, addiction and art by
one of Britain's most iconic musicians.
