Album artwork for Our Band Could Be Your Life by Michael Azerrad

This 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.
