No doubt, Michael Azzerad's Our Band Could Be Your Life is required reading to learn about some of the most essential bands from the 80's alternative scene. the title comes from a Minutemen song and the book chronicles other monumental groups like Husker Du, Sonic Youth, Minor Threat, Fugazi and MOB. God, what incredible music they made back then! they remain some of my favorites today. particularly affecting, the DIY attitude of Black Flag, who paved the way for so many others to follow...

just to second that comment about "our band could be your life", I'm only 20 and discovered this "genre" if you can call it that, so I bought that book and I now own every album by every band in the book, and Sonic Youth are my fave band ever!!!

too true too true! I was SO glad that they have been able to come back,release cds,play gigs again,etc-a career cut short,then reborn 19 years later-MOB RULES!!

okay, yeah, the video is really annoying.. but at least they had the good taste to play Mission of Burma, right? God, talk about criminally overlooked - this band rules! Vs. was certainly one of my fave recordings from the '80's...

Yeah... this is not a love song. Way to make classic punk all Wes Anderson-like.
