| Fucked
Up and Photocopied Raw,
brazen and totally intense, Fucked Up + Photocopied is a collection of
frenetic flyers produced for the American punk scene between 1977 and
1985. Many were created by the musicians themselves and demonstrate the
emphasis within the punk scene on individuality and the manic urge of
its members to create things new.
Images were compiled out of
whatever material could be found, often photocopied and, still warm,
stapled to the nearest telephone pole to warn the world about next
week's gig. One glance and you can sense the fury of live performances
by bands such as Black Flag, the Dead Kennedys and The Minutemen, and,
through the subtext the reader is exposed to the psyche of a generation
of musicians stripped bare: The Germs, J.F.A, NOFX, X, The Circle
Jerks, Devo, The Exploited, The Screamers, The Cramps, The Dils, The
Avengers and more.
