In Too Deep : When Canadian Punks Took Over the World
Canadian Nu Punk - Book - by Matt Bobkin , Adam Feibel
(2025)
The unlikely story of a bunch of small-town Canadian punks who conquered
the global music industry. After punk found commercial success in the
’90s, with bands like Green Day, the Offspring, and Blink-182, a new
wave of punk bands emerged, each embodying the DIY spirit of the
movement in their own way. While Southern California remained the
spiritual home of punk rock in the early 2000s, an unexpected influx of
eager punks from Canada took the world by storm, changing the genre
forever.
Drawing on exclusive interviews and personal stories
from nine artists of the era, In Too Deep explores how Canada became the
improbable birthplace of a new age of punk icons. Covering the rowdy
punk rock of Gob and Sum 41, the arena-sized ambitions of Simple Plan
and Marianas Trench, the reinvention of the popstar by Avril Lavigne and
Fefe Dobson, and the quest to bring hardcore into the mainstream by
Billy Talent, Silverstein, and Alexisonfire, In Too Deep traces the
evolution of a music scene that challenged notions of who and what
should be considered punk while helping to define Millennial culture as
some of their generation’s first superstars.
