She was the bassist in The Adverts, a band that defined the face of female punkdom in the late s. Gaye Black, formerly of The Adverts, talks about her gaye, art, and experiences in the punk scene. She carries a small black notebook boasting various stickers from Black Metal bands, and thumbs to the right page.

Backstage, already beaming, buzzing, and blushing profusely, I was heading to deliver a gift to the gregarious Geordie Pauline Murray.

Turns out that she uses the book to make a note of all the horror movies she watched that particular day. Christmas was spent watching XXX. We discussed everything, from living without animal products to listening to Black Metal; creepy dreams to seeing ghosts in old buildings.

In fact, [Penetration] arranged [The Adverts] the first gig in Newcastle. Not remembering the name of the advert they watched straight away, she rooted through her bag to look for her diary. She talks about her career, life and artwork in this exclusive interview.

Funnily enough, years later when I was up there doing a solo art show in Newcastle, I got on the phone to Pauline.

Since the tumultuous split of The Adverts inGaye has since devoted her life to activism and taking a stand in a number of ways- from social work, animal rights campaigning, and art curation. It was just one small progression to actually doing a gig there.

Well literally- it was about six inches up to being on the stage, and it felt like home. I felt safely certain that I was the more anxious party- as along with being an established 3D multi-media artist, Gaye devotes much of her time to music journalism herself, covering and interviewing the Black Metal community.
