A definitive collection of the best pieces from the irreverent cult magazine
VICE Magazine was founded in Montreal in 1994 and has grown into one of the biggest brands in magazine publishing, with offices in twenty-four cities worldwide. Its unique blend of irreverence, sardonic humour, investigative journalism and photography has carved its own niche in the cultural landscape. More recently it has been a digital pioneer, with the Viceland website and the hugely influential VBS TV which has produced documentaries on Liberia, North Korea, the dance music phenomenon 'donk', HEAVY METAL IN BAGHDAD and most recently SWANSEA LOVE SONG. And if that was not enough, there is also Vice Records.
VICE may have cornered the market on cool in print.

celebrities in them. But VICE looks like it's here because it wants
to be.

Make way for the new honesty.

A work of genius.

VICE reads like Eminem, only angrier.
