RADIO SILENCE: A Selected Visual of American Hardcore Music.

If you remember the ignored, but timeless music between bands like The Ramones and Nirvana, than you will absolutely love this book. Yeah I'm still a young bol' but that doesn't mean that Hardcore music hasn't been a very big part of my life and practically what made me who I am today. Radio Silence: A Selected Visual of American Hardcore Music is probably one of the greatest books that I have ever seen put together. Authors Nathan Nedorostek and Anthony Pappalardo  compiled collections of photographs, artwork, personal letters, and a shitload of amazing things from the hardcore scene circa 1978-1993. Moreover, handmade t-shirts and original artwork. Radio Silence includes over 500 images of rare records, T-shirts, fanzines, photos, and drawings. All I'm saying is, if you want a book that completely embodies the best years of American hardcore music, than Radio Silence is the way to go! So if you fuck with Bad Brains, Negative Approach, Minor Threat, SSD, whoever the fuck you listen to, go COP!!!! Shit is official.

Here are a couple sample pages taken off of the Radio Silence website:
