Through hundreds of exclusive and original interviews, Punk USA documents the empire that was built overnight as Lookout launched a teenaged Green Day, sold millions of records, and rode the wave of the second coming of punk rock until it all came crashing down. As punk broke nationally in the mid '90s, the label struggled as much with success as it did from any other difficulty. This definitive expanded-and-updated second-edition book is perfect for anyone who is curious about the unlikely, improbable inside scoop on how musical careers are made and unmade.
