Still Having Their Say + Xxx Fanzine 1983-1988 Har

This is a LP + hardcover book 19-song compilation of current bands covering songs from this era xXx Fanzine (1983-1988), Hardcore & Punk In The Eighties isnt merely a collection of articles, reviews and photographs from one of Hardcore Americas best-known fanzines. Its a chronicle of punks evolution in the 80s: a story of music and ideologies in motion. xXxs story picks up while the first wave of hardcore was in full swing. Major players including MINOR THREAT had already released landmark records and bands were loading up station wagons to play now infamous venues like THE CHANNEL, A7 or D.C. SPACE. Now, in addition to reproducing (and restoring) countless interviews and pages from the zine itself, xXx Fanzine re-interviews countless bands and musical prime-movers including Ian MacKaye, Keith Morris and members of AGNOSTIC FRONT, BAD BRAINS and CROMAGS to give the book a rare "Then-And- Now" perspective. xXx Fanzine (1983-1988), Hardcore & Punk In The Eighties isnt merely a look back at hardcores salad days, but a unique look at how punks music and message shook the mainstream itself.
