Verschwende Deine Jugend

Ein Doku-Roman über den deutschen Punk und New Wave

In diesem Buch zum deutschen Punk und New Wave erzählen alle wichtigen Protagonisten der Szene, wie durch die englische Punk-Explosion von 1977 zum erstenmal auch eine deutschsprachige Popkultur möglich wurde, wie Musik und Haltung der „Neuen Welle“ auf Literatur und Malerei ausstrahlten und wie diese blühende Subkultur in der Funkultur der „Neuen Deutschen Welle” ihr Ende fand. In diesem Buch kommen nicht nur Bands wie Fehlfarben, DAF oder Abwärts zu Wort und Popmusiker wie Campino, Blixa Bargeld oder Nina Hagen, sondern auch über Punk sozialisierte Künstler wie Christoph Schlingensief, Ben Becker oder Markus Oehlen und Popmusiker von heute wie Westbam oder Jan Müller von Tocotronic.
