Description

Richard Hell and the Voidoids' Blank Generation is a study that explores the meanings and resonances of one of the defining records of the 1970s punk era. This book combines objective, academic perspectives with culturally centred subjectivities to understand the significance of Richard Hell's music. The record in question was released by Richard Hell and the Voidoids, an artist who embodied the punk urge through his music and aesthetic. Hell had seeded and developed the essential look and character of punk since his arrival in New York in the late 1960s, making him a key figure in shaping the genre. By examining Blank Generation, this book aims to provide a nuanced understanding of the record's impact on the punk movement and its enduring influence on music.
