Thirty years on, punk's days seem far from over. There is still a kicking punk scene in North America, Europe, and Japan. DK's Punk draws together all the threads of punk's glory years, exploring the roots of punk in the US in the mid 1970s, charting its 1977-78 heyday, the 1980s punk new wave, and probes the face of punk in the 21st century.

Published to co-incide with the 30th anniversary of its birth, and with a foreword by Debbie Harry, Punk brings to life all the raucous rebellious experience of punk rock. Archive photo-features by the best rock photographers of the day are teamed with lively commentary from MOJO magazines' journalists as they piece together the punk era from high-octane performances at beer-brawling gigs to kilted, pin-pierced street fashions. Eyewitness accounts by punk artists reveal the stories behind the recordings, the gigs, and the scandals, while original interviews with punk's greatest bands recapture the rawness and exhilaration of the music's early years.
