    <![CDATA[Finally in paperback, the story of the musical revolution that happened right under the nose of the Reagan Eighties- when a small but sprawling network of bands, labels, fanzines, radio stations, and other subversives reenergized American rock with punk rock's do-it-yourself credo and created music that was deeply personal, often brilliant, always challenging, and immensely influential. Our Band Could Be Your Life is a sweeping chronicle of music, politics, drugs, fear, loathing, and faith that is already being recognized as an indie rock classic in its own right.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Gotta go with Tim on this one, this was pivotal in my musical development at the time that I came across this book.  My own explorations had been inching me closer to that whole area of music, so this book turned out to be a good companion throughout.  Real fun read for lovers of the music!]]></body>
