Book: “Left of the Dial”

Description

Featuring interviews with leading figures of the punk underground, Left of the Dial probes the legacy of punk. It touches on the movement’s politics, DIY traditions, rupture of social norms, trans-generational and transnational appeal and much more. Rather than focus on discographies and rehashed gig memories, the interviews aim to unveil the secret history of punk and hardcore ideologies and values, as understood by the performers. Passionate and far-reaching, these conversations illuminate punk’s history with candour and humour.
