Voice of a Generation: 80's UK Punx in their own words - Paperback

by Marquis H. K. (Author)

Britain in the 1980s was in the grip of a socio-economic crisis, with mass unemployment, riots breaking out in all the major cities, the closure of industries, and the height of the Cold War.

This in turn spawned a generation of disaffected youth who fought back with their music coupled with a defiant look and attitude. The UK punks of the 80s were living on the fringe and sticking two fingers up to society.

Here they tell it like it was, in their own words, and remind us why the lifestyle and attitude today is more relevant than ever.
