The definitive visual narrative of a forgotten time and place in
American indie music history: the Los Angeles post-punk scene of
the 1990s. Jabberjaw was for Los Angeles what CBGB was for New
York--the cornerstone of a movement, the emblem of an era, and the
stage on which influential bands would cut their teeth. Bridging
the gap between post-punk of the 1980s and the indie and grunge
movements of the 1990s, and doing for the West Coast what the
hardcore movement had done in D.C., Jabberjaw was a bastion of the
counterculture that hosted bands from the obscure (Hole, Unsane) to
the legendary (Nirvana, Pearl Jam). Produced in collaboration with
the club owners and including contributions from fans, artists, and
musicians, It All Dies Anyway covers Jabberjaw's brief but tangible
influence on the art and music of an overlooked period in Los
Angeles's countercultural evolution. Like CBGB and Max's Kansas
City, Jabberjaw was a focus for a generation's cultural
underground, allowing musicians and artists as diverse as Ween and
Elliot Smith to explore material to the most immediate reaction of
Los Angeles youth. Featuring illustrations from the owners'
archives, the book includes flyers, handbills, and Xeroxed posters,
photographs, handmade record covers, and Polaroids of the cafe,
painting a portrait not only of the club but of a time and place in
music history.
