Presents an illustrated tell-all account of the life and death of the Grunge movement - which emerged in late - 1980s Seattle before taking over pop culture proper for the better half of the 1990s. This book covers the whole scene from a wide variety of angles.

Details the 'post-punk' music scene using several black and white photos. This title also includes a CD.

Punk culture is nomadic; the punk house is the outpost. This work captures the already-weathered face of a 17-year old runaway, the soft hands of a record collector, the mohawked show-goers, the dirty dishes in the sink, the silk screened posters on the wall and the gardens growing up between the cement of city blocks.

Artist and musician, Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth) looks back at the plastic gadget that first let us make our own compilations. Over eighty home tapers including artists, musicians, actors, writers, directors, comediennes, talk show hosts and, of course, record store employees were invited to tell the stories behind their mixes.
