Reviews
"This book encapsulates perfectly the time when punk was a movement and not an scholastic subject." --Mark Diston, the Register, "The Dead Kennedys couldn't get arrested (creatively speaking) in America and turned toward British indie label Cherry Red to release Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables , which, in the author's words, 'outclasses London Calling , or the Sex Pistols' and the Ramones' debut albums.'" --Matthew Duersten, lamag.com, "A must have item for anyone interested in this original and distinctive band and their sneering yet creative take on the Punk Rock form." --Roger Batty, Musique Machine, "The Dead Kennedys tale is as complex and contradictory brilliant as any journey through punk rock can be with their tight knit musical brilliance and their acidic commentary on the bedenimmed neoliberal consensus of late seventies America." --John Robb, louderthanwar.com, "This story, told efficiently by a veteran chronicler of punk, reveals that the American underground in the late '70s could match the best of the British punks when it came to political commentary paired with feisty music." --John L. Murphy, popmatters.com, "This story, told efficiently by a veteran chronicler of punk, reveals that the American underground in the late '70s could match the best of the British punks when it came to political commentary paired with feisty music." --John L. Murphy, popmatters.com "This is an extremely interesting, well balanced and long overdue account of the story of one of punk's most important bands." --Andy Higgins, massmovement.co.uk, "We have a sense of humor and we're not afraid to use it in a vicious way if we have to. In some ways, we're cultural terrorists, using music instead of guns." --Jello Biafra, Dead Kennedys "It was obvious that DKs weren't just another band that was gonna come and go. They were something special. Biafra was an absolute talent. And he had a band behind him that were tight and good." --Howie Klein, concert promoter, disc jockey, and record label executive "One day, this kid from my social studies class brought in a cassette tape of Dead Kennedys' Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables and I listened to it and my life was changed completely." --Adam Gierasch, film director "One of my favorite rock 'n' roll memories is of an after-party during DKs' first visit to Seattle. Recognize that bands like this for me--these actual guys being at a party in the same house that I was in--was like being in the presence of Led Zeppelin or Kiss." --Duff McKagan of Guns 'n' Roses "My education was punk rock--what Dead Kennedys said... It was attacking America, but it was American at the same time." --Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day, "It's a well-balanced and informative account . . . the pages just seem to turn themselves." --Andy Higgins, Razorcake, "The Dead Kennedys couldn't get arrested (creatively speaking) in America and turned toward British indie label Cherry Red to release Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables , which, in the author's words, 'outclasses London Calling , or the Sex Pistols' and the Ramones' debut albums.'" --Matthew Duersten, lamag.com, "This first major work on America's massively influential punk band will be pounced on and devoured by the huge Dead Kennedys global fan-base." --Kris Needs, Classic Rock, "A must have item for anyone interested in this original and distinctive band and their sneering yet creative take on the Punk Rock form." --Roger Batty, Musique Machine, "Ogg's directness and his attention to detail make this among the best biographies you will ever read. The book recounts a vital chapter in US Punk history and delivers its narrative with style, focus and sincerity." --Steve Scanner, scannerzine.com, "This first major work on America's massively influential punk band will be pounced on and devoured by the huge Dead Kennedys global fan-base." --Kris Needs, Classic Rock, "This book is an essential pick-up for anyone with an iota of interest in the DKs and Punk in general. Highly recommended." --Pete Craven, caughtinthecrossfire.com, "It's a well-balanced and informative account . . . the pages just seem to turn themselves." --Andy Higgins, Razorcake, "Alex Ogg has accomplished a rare task with his new book. . . . Ogg manages to present all sides of the band's history, speaking with all sides of the now-warring members. More surprisingly, it's actually entertaining." --nuthousepunks.com

Synopsis
Dead Kennedys routinely top both critic and fan polls as the greatest punk band of their generation. Their debut, Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables, in particular, is regularly voted among the top albums in the genre. The book uses dozens of first-hand interviews, photos and original artwork to offer a new perspective on a group who would become mired in controversy almost from the get-go. It applauds the band's key role in transforming punk rhetoric, both polemical and musical, into something genuinely threatening - and enormously funny., Dead Kennedys routinely top both critic and fan polls as the greatest punk band of their generation. Their debut full-length, Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables , in particular, is regularly voted among the top albums in the genre. Fresh Fruit offered a perfect hybrid of humor and polemic strapped to a musical chassis that was as tetchy and inventive as Jello Biafra's withering broadsides. Those lyrics, cruel in their precision, were revelatory. But it wouldn't have worked if the underlying sonics were not such an uproarious rush, the paraffin to Biafra's naked flame. Dead Kennedys' continuing influence is an extraordinary achievement for a band that had practically zero radio play and only released records on independent labels. They not only existed outside of the mainstream but were, as V. Vale of Search and Destroy noted, the first band of their stature to turn on and attack the music industry itself. The DKs set so much in motion. They were integral to the formulation of an alternative network that allowed bands on the first rung of the ladder to tour outside of their own backyard. They were instrumental in supporting the concept of all-ages shows and spurned the advances of corporate rock promoters and industry lapdogs. They legitimized the notion of an American punk band touring internationally while disseminating the true horror of their native country's foreign policies, effectively serving as anti-ambassadors on their travels. The book uses dozens of first-hand interviews, photos, and original artwork to offer a new perspective on a group who would become mired in controversy almost from the get-go. It applauds the band's key role in transforming punk rhetoric, both polemical and musical, into something genuinely threatening--and enormously funny. The author offers context in terms of both the global and local trajectory of punk and, while not flinching from the wildly differing takes individual band members have on the evolution of the band, attempts to be celebratory--if not uncritical., Despite releasing records only on independent labels and receiving virtually no radio play, Dead Kennedys routinely top both critic and fan polls as the greatest punk band of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Their sound was inventive and tetchy, and front man Jello Biafra's lyrics were incisive and often scathing. This chronicle--the first in-depth book written about Dead Kennedys--uses dozens of firsthand interviews, photos, and original artwork to offer a new perspective on a group that was mired in controversy almost from its inception. It examines and applauds the band's key role in transforming punk rhetoric, both polemical and musical, into something genuinely threatening and enormously funny. Author Alex Ogg puts the local and global trajectory of punk into context and, while not flinching from the wildly differing takes the individual band members have on the evolution of the band, attempts to be celebratory--if not uncritical.
