Description
Poised at the epicentre of an explosive underground scene, photographer Peterson witnessed the birth of a brash new era of music that grabbed the world by its throat and refused to let go. Grunge, the bastard child of '60s garage and '70s punk, revived the original gritty spirit of rock'n'roll rebellion. Featuring 91 b/w photographs, Peterson does not rely on the cult of celebrity to tell this compelling tale, rather he tells of the complicity between band and audience and captures the raw, futile and bored alienation of the music and the scene.
