punk authors?
 

I've read a few books by authors who are supposed to represen a genre of music, like jazz, or rock and roll
And I wanted to find a good book inspired by punk.
seems like it would be a good mix

I have read alot.... ranging from excellent to bad.

Here are some of the best:

"Please Kill Me" by Legs McNeil & Gillian McCain
"Our Band Could Be Your Life" Michael Azerrad
"Dance of Days: Two Decades of Punk in the Nation's Capital" by Mark Andersen and Mark Jenkins.

Hope this helps. Amazon has all three of these books.

I'm pretty sure Jello Biafra wrote a book. Don't know what it is called. That would be worth a read.

What kind of punk are you looking for?

Cyberpunk-William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Neal Stephenson

Splatterpunk-Skip and Spector,

thanks for your advice, I will look into these

american skin - don degrazia

it's about the skinhead culture in chicago in the late '80's. multiculti skins fighting against the nazi punks. pretty entertaining read........

"Get in the van" by Henry Rollins.
Quite funny. The guy doesn't exactly try to make himself look good, either.
