Details

Contemporary song lyrics from the music genres punk, post punk, new wave and new German wave with numerous b/w collages and b/w illustrations that provide a good aesthetic overview of the years 1976 - 1981. Good paper quality meets a binding that may be prone to breakage. Foreword: "'Erekta Prompt' is a small, personal selection of song texts that we encounter today. The texts, written by young, often very young people, are a personal engagement with current events and are in themselves inseparable from their strength expressive music. Drawings and design cannot replace them, but they can convey something of their spirit. It is a music whose origins can be found in the punk movement. It is mostly produced and distributed by very small, independent labels therefore only heard by a small, interested audience. Music is a spontaneous form of communication for urgent and distressing content. My aim is to make an impression of this content accessible to a wider audience." Judith Ammann 1981
