Anarcho-Punk: Music and Resistance in London 1977-1988 is the distillation of over three years’ work. It’s the story of an often overlooked scene.
Anarcho-punk in the 1980s truly rocked the boat. Much more than music it set out to change the world and in a not insignificant way did just that.
It inspired a generation of activists, artists and musicians to take up the fight for a better, fairer world. This is their story.
As we return to the embattled 1970s and 1980s David Insurrection takes us on a journey to visit some of the scene’s most significant locations and hot spots, to places where change mattered and the spirit of revolt burned brightest.
In this new Expanded Edition David has added fifteen more chapters with over fifty pages of additional text and colour images making this book the most comprehensive look at the Anarcho-Punk scene, it’s people, venues and squats, that has ever been published.
