Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. FREAK SCENE: An Oral History of UK Alternative Music in the 1980s The definitive account of the decade that indie forgot-until now. For decades, the popular narrative has painted the 1980s as a cultural wasteland: a synthetic desert of New Romantic frills and Americanised power ballads, waitin…g to be rescued by Britpop's guitar-powered resurrection. That story is a lie. Freak Scene tears up the tidy history to reveal the real 1980s-a period of extraordinary creativity, DIY ethics, and scene-building that unfolded not on Top of the Pops, but in the margins. In dank clubs like The Hacienda and The Bell, in bedrooms where teenagers taught themselves to play after hearing John Peel, in the pages of photocopied fanzines and the racks of independent record shops, an alternative nation was being built. Drawing on new interviews with the musicians, label owners, DJs, journalists, and fans who lived it, this oral history takes you inside the worlds that mattered: The post-punk laboratories of Factory, Mute, 4AD, and Rough Trade The jangling indie-pop of the C86 generation and Sarah Records The art-school experimentalists of Leeds and the noise revolution of The Jesus and Mary Chain The goths in the Batcave, the Medway garage punks, and the Sound of Young Scotland The rise of indie-dance, acid house, and the Madchester explosion The Smiths, The Fall, New Order, and the bands that changed everything From the aftermath of punk to the sea change of 1989, when the underground finally became the mainstream, Freak Scene charts the hidden history of a decade that gave us the template for everything that followed-from Britpop to the American alternative explosion, from the small labels of then to the Bandcamp pages of today. If you were there, clutching your well-worn copy of the C86 tape, this is your story. If you weren't, welcome. You're about to discover that the 1980s were not a wasteland. They were a wonderland. You just had to know where to look. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
