When people think of punk they often think of outrageous fashion and iconic bands like The Ramones and the Sex Pistols. But the reality of punk stretches over three decades and numerous countries, with a history as rich and varied as it is shocking and daring. With this lavishly illustrated and authoritative A-Z guide, now in a new format, Brian Cogan leads readers through the fiery history of a furious, rebellious, contradictory, and boundary-redefining musical genre and cultural movement that remains as massively influential as it is wildly misunderstood. As The Encyclopedia of Punk clearly proves, punk music and culture has produced a rich trove of material, above and beyond the hundreds of bands, from books and films to incendiary political movements.

“Cogan has basically compiled the end-all, be-all list of punk bands you should know about…Basically it's the punk fan's holy bible.” -The Staten Island Advance

Punk was anything but glossy...

Lavishly done coffee-table style book that is a must have for every punk fan....informative write-ups and TONS of gloss photos make this a definite go-to reference for the punk (and sometimes new wave) era.

This is a good reference for looking up well known punk bands. It offers basic information about each band and their discography. There are many more bands I would like to have seen included but considering the hefty size of this volume as it is, I think they did an admirable job of compiling info on bands in the punk scene.

I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to get more information on Punk music. It gives you a well rounded look at this thing we call punk rock. If this is your beginning you are going to want to explore more books. Enjoy the read, or you can use it for a reference guide.

HUGE fan of the genre, so this book is great for the basics on punk. Clearly missing some of the smaller artists I like, but still a fun read and coffee table book in our home.

Great read.

Reviewed in Canada on November 2, 2016

This book gives glimpses of every band that ever impacted punk. Most just get a 1 page write up, but some of the more significant bands get two. This is just meant to be an intro into punk bands. Great read.
