Mark Powell

Writing for Metro, Total Film, Drowned In Sound, etc.

METRO
The fancy flash widget thingy below contains a small but fairly representative sample of the kinds of arts features I've written for Metro newspaper over a four-year period. In most cases, the lead piece on each spread is mine, but I've also included some shorter down-page pieces towards the end of the sample.

Click the widget to enter full-screen mode, turn pages using the arrows, and click again to zoom in/out. Press 'Esc' to exit full-screen.
