| Summary |
"Punk: The Definitive Guide to the Blank Generation and Beyond serves as the most exhaustive treatment of the punk movement-not only its music, which Rich Weidman exhaustively details from the proto-punk bands of the 1960s through the pop punk of the 1990s and 2000s to today's punk scene-but also the significant impact of punk on culture itself in terms of attitude, ideology, fashion and style, film, literature, and art"-- Provided by publisher. |
