The most wide-ranging and provocative look at punk rock as a social
change movement told through firsthand accounts. Punk rock has been
on the frontlines of activism since exploding on the scene in the
1970's. Punk Revolution! is the most wide-ranging and provocative
look at punk rock as a social change movement over the past
forty-five years, told through firsthand accounts of roughly 250
musicians and activists. John Malkin brings together a wide cast of
characters that include major punk & post-punk musicians
(members of The Ramones, Bad Religion, Crass, Dead Kennedys, Patti
Smith's band, Gang of Four, Sex Pistols, Iggy & the Stooges,
Bikini Kill, Talking Heads, The Slits, and more), important figures
influenced by the punk movement (Noam Chomsky, Kalle Lasn, Keith
McHenry, Marjane Satrapi, Laurie Anderson, Kenneth Jarecke), and
underground punk voices. These insightful, radical, and often funny
conversations travel through rebellions against Margaret Thatcher,
Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump, and Vladimir Putin and to punk
activism that has taken on nuclear war, neoliberalism, modern
warfare, patriarchy, white supremacy, the police, settler
colonialism, and more. The result is a fresh and unique history of
punk throughout the ages.
