ChrisKillip’s images capture the electrifying heyday of The Station in Gateshead, Newcastle AnotherMan

heard about The Station in customary fashion, by word of mouth. Previously working in London as an assistant to the photographer Adrian Flowers, he returned to his native Isle of Man in the early 70s , and began photographing what he saw there, in Huddersfield and Bury St Edmunds. In 1975, his focus shifted to shooting communities in the north-east of England; he’d later close the decade as director of Newcastle upon Tyne’shis formative photo book first published in 1988 and reissued in 2015.

“1985 wasn’t a great time in Gateshead. It was after the miners’ strike and a lot of the punks at The Station were unemployed. This place, run as a very inclusive collective, was part of their identity in the way it affirmed their self-worth. As a venue it was unique, members of local bands, who weren’t playing that evening, were in the audience dancing.
