Minor Compositions Podcast Episode 12: The Subhumans & Punk Historiography with Ian Glasper.
In this episode Minor Compositions talk with Ian Glasper about his book 'Silence Is No Reaction: Forty Years of Subhumans'. In the conversation they cover broader issues of ‘punk historiography’ and documenting more marginal musical, artistic and political milieus.
Ian has been writing about punk since starting his first zine in 1986, switching to writing books in the early 2000s as he grew increasingly frustrated that existing histories of punk tended to focus on the best known and most visible artists, completely neglecting the much wider and vibrant array of bands and music.
Ian Glasper is the author of numerous books on the history of punk including A Country Fit For Heroes, The Scene That Would Not Die, Terrorized: Vol 1 & 2, Burning Britain, The Day The Country Died, Trapped In A Scene, Armed With Anger and Contract in Blood.
