Description

Sellout: The Major-Label Feeding Frenzy That Swept Punk, Emo, and Hardcore (1994-2007)

By Dan Ozzi, a seasoned music writer, this book chronicles the embattled era in punk that followed Nirvana's mainstream success with Nevermind. The result was a schism: those who accepted the cash flow of the majors, and those who defiantly clung to their indie cred.

Through the stories of eleven prominent bands who made the jump from indie to major, Sellout charts the twists and turns of the last "gold rush" of the music industry, where some groups "sold out" and rose to surprise super stardom, while others buckled under mounting pressures.
