Introduction by Marc Jacobs.
1977: Punk rock music and fashion blew out of New York City, exploded in London, and caught like wildfire in San Francisco, Los Angeles and the world over. It developed concurrently everywhere, and every region had it's own identity. But it was in San Francisco and L.A. where the most radical behaviour in stateside punk rock style and attitude was exhibited. It was anti-hippie, anti-disco, anti-parent and anti-"nice". And it was shockingly new. Some of the more celebrated individuals of punk legend featured in this book are Darby Crash, Iggy Pop, Sid Vicious, John Waters,The Cramps, The Avengers, Flipper, The Screamers, The Nuns, and many others.
