Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground, 1981-1991This is the never-before-told story of the musical revolution that happened right under the nose of the Reagan Eighties--when a small but sprawling network of bands, labels, fanzines, radio stations, and other subversives reenergized American rock with punk rock's do-it-yourself credo and created music that was deeply personal, often brilliant, always challenging, and immensely influential. This sweeping chronicle of music, politics, drugs, fear, loathing, and faith has been recognized as an indie rock classic in its own right. Among the bands profiled: Mission of Burma, Butthole Surfers, The Minutemen, Sonic Youth, Black Flag, Big Black, Hüsker Dü, Fugazi, Minor Threat, Mudhoney, The Replacements, Beat Happening, and Dinosaur Jr. |

Recenzja użytkownika - Robert - GoodreadsThe ESSENTIAL book on 80's alternative music. It's divided into a lot of mini bios about bands like Beat Happening, Mudhoney, Dinosaur Jr and they are all well written and fascinating. I suggest you then listen to the Left of the Dial boxset after reading this must have tome. Przeczytaj pełną recenzję
