Julian Cope

    21 octobre 1957

    Julian Cope est un musicien et auteur britannique qui s'est fait connaître comme une figure de proue de la scène musicale post-punk. Au-delà de sa carrière musicale, il est un auteur et chercheur reconnu, profondément investi dans la culture néolithique et les sites mégalithiques. Ses écrits présentent souvent une perspective critique sur la société occidentale contemporaine, associée à un intérêt pour l'occultisme et les traditions païennes. Cope est connu pour sa défense fervente de la musique obscure et underground et pour son approche distinctive du commentaire culturel.
