a book written by Michael Azerrad on 13 of the most important indie/punk/alternative bands of the 1980s. the bands are: Black Flag, Sonic Youth, The Minutemen, Minor Threat, The Replacements, Beat Happening, Mudhoney, Husker Du, Butthole Surfers, Mission of Burma, Dinosaur Jr., Big Black, and Fugazi. Without these bands, the 90s alternative rock explosion could never have existed.
Guy #1: "I am so fucking sick of this emo and post-grunge bullshit that's on the radio nowadays."

Guy #2 (the cooler one): "Dude, read 'Our band could be your life' and then listen to those 13 bands. your life will be changed forever.
