Sid Vicious was a member of the Sex Pistols for a little more than a year and died of a heroin overdose at the age of 21. Oh, and in between, he may have stabbed his girlfriend, Nancy Spungen to death in a New York hotel room.

It’s quite the story–and it’s all told in this book called Padlocks: Living with Sid and Nancy.
