Populated mostly by the diehards and remnants of the 1980s, its sound and style were in danger of being subsumed, or at least diluted, by grunge and alternative music through a resurgent interest in guitar-driven bands.\u003cbr\u003eAble to maintain its own identity and networks against the challenge, as the decade progressed punk evolved into even more diffuse subgenres. Now, twenty years after its relatively inauspicious birth in Australia, punk, in one of its multivarious forms, topped the national music charts.\u003cbr\u003eBut though the decade brought if not respectability then a new saleability to punk, it was an era still prone to its tumult, tragedy, humour, and audacity.\u003cbr\u003eThrough a further 70 interviews, Orstralia: A Punk History 1990-1999 continues the disclosure of its first volume, covering bands from the most obscure to those who reached the very apex of Australia's music industry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PM Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50250699145501,"sku":"GDR20260381","price":25.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/1129\/9869\/files\/Orstralia_A_Punk_History_1990-1999_Paperback_in_Australia_Global_Disrupt.webp?v=1754965061","url":"https:\/\/www.globaldisruptrecords.com.au\/products\/orstralia-a-punk-history-1990-1999-paperback-incoming","provider":"Global Disrupt Records Distro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
