In this pocket-size book, Rombes (English, U. of Detroit Mercy) examines the band's first album in two parts. The first considers the social and historical context from which the band and the punk rock movement arose; the second looks at the album's production, songs, reception, and musical historical significance. The author provides notes and a bibliography. There is no index. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
