Ben Pfeifer’s Reviews > Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground 1981-1991 > Status Update

Every chapter in this book not only discussed a band, but a small, independent record company starting out. A lot of times they have to call the mom and pop record stores to fill their orders. I would love to read a history of those mom and pop record stores, at least in the midwest.

"Beat Happening looked at the established rules and asked 'Why?'"

Boy, just reading this replacement chapter gives me a massive hangover.

Holy moly. Mission of Burma's concept sounds like a lot of fun.
