Some Wear Leather, Some Wear Lace : A Worldwide Compendium of Postpunk and Goth in the 1980s
1980s Goth/Postpunk - Book - by A.Harriman and M.Bontje
(2014)
It was a scene that had many names: some original members referred to
themselves as punks, others, new romantics, new wavers, the bats, or the
morbids. Goth did not gain lexical currency until the late 1980s. But
no matter what term was used, postpunk encompasses all the
incarnations of the 1980s alternative movement. Some Wear Leather, Some Wear Lace is
a visual and oral history of the first decade of the scene. Featuring
interviews with both the performers and the audience to capture the
community on and off stage, the book places personal snapshots alongside
professional photography to reveal a unique range of fashions, bands,
and scenes.
A book about the music, the individual, and the
creativity of a worldwide community rather than theoretical definitions
of a subculture, Some Wear Leather, Some Wear Lace considers a
subject not often covered by academic books. Whether you were part of
the scene or are just fascinated by different modes of expression, this
book will transport you to another time and place.
