À propos de ce contenu audio

“This is an irresistible book that will spark a thousand arguments—and that's just on the day it's published. I'm already making my list. I haven't had so much fun with a work of criticism in years.”— Greil Marcus, author of The History of Rock ‘n’ Roll in Ten Songs Fifty years ago punk crashed on the scene, redefining music and popular culture. In celebration of that historic event comes this cultural history exploring fifty iconic alternative songs and unforgettable moments that destroyed and redefined rock ‘n’ roll. Once upon a time—November 26, 1976, to be precise—a band named the Sex Pistols kicked their way into cultural consciousness with “Anarchy in the U.K.” It was the public launch of punk rock, raucous music with a snarling in-your-face attitude, aggressive style, and a riotous political sensibility that came, saw, and conquered. Fifty years later, the question remains: What the hell was that? Punk in Fifty Pieces retells the story of punk’s cultural earthquake. Kevin Dettmar traces the evolution of this rock ‘n’ roll revolution, revealing how classic early punk (The Ramones, Patti Smith, Iggy Pop) gave birth to both post-punk (Joy Division, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Gang of Four) and New Wave (Talking Heads, Blondie, Devo). Standing beside classic works such as Please Kill Me, Lipstick Traces, Rip It Up and Start Again, and England’s Dreaming, Punk in Fifty Pieces paints a vivid portrait of an era, a sound, and the artists and attitude that made it unforgettable. It’s the perfect introduction for a new generation of rebels without a cause and a master playlist for die-hards who may no longer be slam-dancing in the mosh pit but have never forgotten the music.

Talking Heads, “Psycho Killer" The Police, “Roxanne" The Clash, “(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais" Public Image Ltd, “Public Image" The Cure, “Boys Don’t Cry" The B–52s, “Rock Lobster" The Go-Go’s, “We Got the Beat" The Pretenders, “Precious" The Psychedelic Furs, “Pretty in Pink" Art Musique
