Download or read book Our Band Could Be Your Life written by Michael Azerrad and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive chronicle of underground music in the 1980s tells the stories of Black Flag, Sonic Youth, The Replacements, and other seminal bands whose DIY revolution changed American music forever. Our Band Could Be Your Life 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 re-energized American rock with punk'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 is an indie rock classic in its own right. The bands profiled include: Sonic Youth Black Flag The Replacements Minutemen Husker Du Minor Threat Mission of Burma Butthole Surfers Big Black Fugazi Mudhoney Beat Happening Dinosaur Jr.

This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the 1970s gave way to the 80s, New York's party scene entered a ferociously inventive period characterized by its creativity, intensity, and hybridity. Life and Death on the New York Dance Floor chronicles this tumultuous time, charting the sonic and social eruptions that took place in the city’s subterranean party venues as well as the way they cultivated breakthrough movements in art, performance, video, and film. Interviewing DJs, party hosts, producers, musicians, artists, and dancers, Tim Lawrence illustrates how the relatively discrete post-disco, post-punk, and hip hop scenes became marked by their level of plurality, interaction, and convergence. He also explains how the shifting urban landscape of New York supported the cultural renaissance before gentrification, Reaganomics, corporate intrusion, and the spread of AIDS brought this gritty and protean time and place in American culture to a troubled denouement.

Book excerpt: When a relationship-adverse guitarist is handed guardianship of his niece, he finds solace and help from an unexpected source. Known as the comic relief and steadfast bachelor of the chart-topping band, Water Reflection, Lonnie Brennan is only in Tennessee to make sure their lead singer doesn't get his heart stomped on. He has no intention of falling in love with the Southern charm of the town...or the sexy redhead whose problems are far too reminiscent of the childhood he escaped. Wynn Nichols was always the stable friend guiding others. So how did she end up divorced, slinking home with disappointment and failure following her? The last thing she's looking for is a new relationship, and certainly not one with a sexy musician who treats life like a series of jokes. When Lonnie suddenly finds his tiny niece placed in his care and has no idea what to do with her, Wynn swoops in to help. They form an unlikely friendship that gets them through the darkest days of their lives. Can they risk the relationship they need for the attraction that brews between them and a chance at a very unlikely happily ever after? "I always saw relationships as a burden instead of a gift...until Wynn showed me the way." Inspired by Chris Janson's "Drunk Girl," this heart-searing, single-dad, slow-burn standalone is the fourth book in an interconnected, standalone series.
