Published for the first time, this is the poetry McComb wrote when the Triffids' musical output was at its height. It illuminates a hitherto neglected aspect of his creative brilliance.

Description
Brilliant songwriter and lead singer of the Triffids, David McComb died in 1999, leaving behind a legacy of evocative music. Always more than a pop musician, McComb was a perceptive poet who explored and confronted addiction, pop culture, the colloquial, and the metaphysical.
Collected and published for the first time, this is the poetry McComb wrote during his 20s and 30s when the Triffids' musical output was at its height. The poems in this book will delight fans of popular music and contemporary poetry alike.
Beautiful Waste illuminates a hitherto neglected aspect of McComb's creative brilliance.
