Your Band Sucks

Author: Jon Fine
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 067002659X
Category : Alternative rock music
Languages : en
Pages : 322

Book Description
"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.

Book Description
Burning Ditches and Getting the Green Light: My account of the life and times of Nebraska's DIY pre internet 80 90s rock band Such Sweet Thunder. 180,000 plus road miles, 5 states, 1200+ live shows, 6 albums and 8000 CD and Casette Sales later(1000 unit sales of the 8000 were in a town of 10,000 perm residents). Their music is currently out of print, but hear some samples at myspace.com/suchsweetthunder. Such Sweet Thunder were the consummate pre-internet guitar/bass/vocals/drums all original band, and one of the few to pay for their own way with their own original music(vs Pay to Play bands or those who relied on covers to pay the bills). FYI this is the biography of the band written autobiographical style by a lead guitarist and manager. It chonicles the Nebraska midwest career and recordings of Such Sweet Thunder and their late 80s early 1990s live/recorded/creative peak and beyond. As Scott Roth would say, Such Sweet Thunder was DIY when do it yourself was not cool and every band from the country thought that the machine of a "Big record company" would make them either the Next Bon Jovi or even the next Nirvana. Such Sweet Thunder went their own path. Read about it here.

Our Band Could Be Your Life

Languages : en
Pages : 528

Book Description
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.

Twilight of the Gods

Languages : en
Pages : 306

Book Description
National Bestseller * Named one of Rolling Stone's Best Music Books of 2018 * One of Newsweek's 50 Best Books of 2018 * A Billboard Best of 2018 * A New York Times Book Review "New and Noteworthy" selection The author of the critically acclaimed Your Favorite Band is Killing Me offers an eye-opening exploration of the state of classic rock, its past and future, the impact it has had, and what its loss would mean to an industry, a culture, and a way of life. Since the late 1960s, a legendary cadre of artists—including the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac, the Eagles, Black Sabbath, and the Who—has revolutionized popular culture and the sounds of our lives. While their songs still get airtime and some of these bands continue to tour, its idols are leaving the stage permanently. Can classic rock remain relevant as these legends die off, or will this major musical subculture fade away as many have before, Steven Hyden asks. In this mix of personal memoir, criticism, and journalism, Hyden stands witness as classic rock reaches the precipice. Traveling to the eclectic places where geriatric rockers are still making music, he talks to the artists and fans who have aged with them, explores the ways that classic rock has changed the culture, investigates the rise and fall of classic rock radio, and turns to live bootlegs, tell-all rock biographies, and even the liner notes of rock’s greatest masterpieces to tell the story of what this music meant, and how it will be remembered, for fans like himself. Twilight of the Gods is also Hyden’s story. Celebrating his love of this incredible music that has taken him from adolescence to fatherhood, he ponders two essential questions: Is it time to give up on his childhood heroes, or can this music teach him about growing old with his hopes and dreams intact? And what can we all learn from rock gods and their music—are they ephemeral or eternal?
