Description

In 1979, a soon-to-erupt punk scene took hold in Washington, DC, with bands like Bad Brains, Trenchmouth, Teen Idles and the Untouchables - among others - at the forefront. Lucian Perkins, later a Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist for the Washington Post, was then an intern who photographed several pivotal gigs over a short period of time. His now-iconic photos of early punk concerts are complemented by essays from punk rock musicians Henry Rollins and Alec MacKaye.

Author Biography:

Lucian Perkins, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, worked as a staff photographer for the Washington Post for twenty-seven years until 2007. While at the Post, Perkins covered many of the major events of the time, including Russia since 1988, the wars in the former Yugoslavia, the Palestinian uprising in the West Bank, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Currently Perkins is an independent photographer and videographer concentrating on multimedia projects. Alec MacKaye is a singer and musician best known for his bands the Untouchables, Faith, Ignition, and the Warmers. In more recent years, MacKaye has focused on other artistic pursuits such as painting and writing.
