“Trapped In A Scene: UKHC 1985-1989″ by Ian Glasper. Cherry Red Books.

Publish Date:07/09/2009

“The underground hardcore scene of the mid to late 1980s was UK punk rock’s last significant creative gasp. Emerging from the wreckage of the anarcho-punk scene spawned by the likes of Crass and Conflict, it took its influences from the studs ‘n’ leather punk bands of the early 1980s such as Discharge and GBH. These bands pushed musical boundaries into new avenues of extremity, helping to shape the alternative music scene of today. Trapped in a Scene is the long-awaited closing volume of Ian Glasper’s celebrated trilogy on the UK punk scene of the 1980s.”
