A portrait of the music band and design team that inspired a clothing label and website focuses on major developmental periods in the group's evolution, in a die-cut, fabric-bag encased scrapbook of press clippings, personal mementos, printed ephemera, a concert DVD, and more.

CD comes in a paper, fliptop wallet, with tracklist on front and reverse. Tracks spelt as they appear on the sleeve. While there are 12 songs on the release, there are only 11 tracks. The last two songs listed on the artwork are actually combined ("Culture Vulture - The Original" and "Hitch Hiking To Dresden") into the 11th track. Und der Galerist war auch nicht faul: Book Launch Chicks On Speed (COS) are Melissa Logan (from New York), Kiki Moorse (from Munich) and Alex Murray-Leslie (from Bowral, Australia). Theyre also a band, a clothing label, a website, a record label, a design team and a twenty-first-century phenomenon. The girls met while running a drinking den at art school in Munich. They moved to Berlin, where low rents are attracting unprecedented numbers of young creatives. There they reinvented themselves as Chicks On Speed, an all-girl collective, who, while relishing their amateur status in various creative fields, are fearlessly "putting it out there". From providing a raunchy, cover-version soundtrack to parties and gigs, to customising visitors clothing at exhibitions (Foundation Cartier) to posing with Karl Lagerfeld for the cover of their latest album, the Chicks have invaded the worlds of fashion and music with their endearing D-I-Y aesthetic and good-time vibe. Now theyre being taken seriously by these mega-industries; COS are both muse and rebel! This, their first publication, aims to capture that sense of freedom and spontaneity. The book is divided into periods of their lives: Fake Band, Pressing the Press, Sell Out, Temporary Spaces, Modifidas (imaginary products), We Dont Play Guitars, Class War, Consuming Passion and Heaven or Hell or Just The End. Die-cut, over-printed and assembled from many different stocks, this book approximates a COS scrapbook, full of press-clippings, personal mementos and ideas, printed ephemera and free COS merchandise.
