Let It All Fall - Underground Music and the Culture of Rebellion in Newfoundland, 1977-95

"Beginning in the late 1970s, a new raw sound began to emerge from the basements and garages of St. John's which, by the mid-90s, had grown into a vibrant community. With few resources, dozens of bands produced a staggering amount of music. As an important part of our recent cultural history, they would lay the foundation for what is now an expansive industry. Let It All Fall offers considerable insight into the largely undocumented underground social and cultural life of St. John's. Let It All Fall traces how underground youth culture challenged social and economic inequity, as well as cultural norms, during one of the most turbulent times in Newfoundland history, the collapse of the cod fishery."--
