520 "Jon Fine spent nearly thirty years performing and
recording with bands that played various forms of
aggressive and challenging underground rock music, and, as
he writes in this memoir, at no point were any of those
bands 'ever threatened, even distantly, by actual fame.'
Yet when members of his first band, Bitch Magnet, reunited
after twenty-one years to tour ... diehard longtime fans
traveled from far and wide to attend those shows, despite
creeping middle-age obligations of parenthood and 9-to-5
jobs, testament to the remarkable staying power of the
indie culture that the bands predating the likes of Bitch
Magnet--among them Black Flag, Mission of Burma, and Sonic
Youth --willed into existence through sheer determination
and a shared disdain for the mediocrity of contemporary
popular music"--Amazon.com.
