For anyone who lived and breathed the American indie scene in the 80’s and loved bands from Minutemen and Black Flag to The Replacements and Sonic Youth this book a necessary and joyous read. Filled with entertaining anecdotes, from acid soaked onstage orgies at early Butthole Surfer shows, to rat infested European squats that served as both venue and bedroom. Azerrad writes like he was actually along for the ride and makes you feel like you were as well.
