Synopsis

A definitive portrait of the 80s/90s indie-rock music scene in the form of 60 profiles/interviews and many rare photographs. This collection takes as starting points the psychodramas of Throwing Muses and the proto-slacker anthems of Camper Van Beethoven, and follows them through to the critical triumphs of Sleater-Kinney and Neutral Milk Hotel over a decade later, taking in such pioneering artists as P.J. Harvey, Sonic Youth, Pixies, Bikini Kill, Nick Cave, Beck, Cat Power, Pavement, Sebadoh, Breeders, Jeff Buckley, Belle & Sebastian, Hole, Magnetic Fields, and many more.
