Summary: Astounding punk document!
Review: This is an essential guide to the music that was called new wave and post punk, which, by the way, was THE real "alternative" music, not the garbage they label today. Not only is this book thoroughly entertaining but a great reference source. It has all the acts from that era, from commercial (Cure, Depeche Mode) to hopelessly obscure (Girls at Our Best, Hurrah!, Freshies, New Musik, et.al.) It comes with a bonus CD that has some nice interviews and snippets of featured artists' songs.

Summary: Post Punk Product for the People
Review: Wow -- what an unbelievable labour of love. Like his first book "Punk Rock Diary", George Gimarc has managed to chronical the day to day doings of hundreds of bands (some known, some who are just names to most us) during two of the most pivotal years in modern music. If you like Post Punk/New Wave music, buy this book!
