However, the question arises when you read the letter on the back cover of the book: Is the band proud of this book? The answer in simple. No. The Dead Kennedys themselves opposed the printing of this book. For various reasons (I won't spoil the good read for you, should you want the book.) they didn't want it to come out. Also, even though it is a punk book, it somehow strikes me as a "very special issue" of "Bop" or something in that line of publications. The book offers no substance at all, really, only rare pictures and articles. Any good punk rocker will feel a twinge of guilt while reading this book.

So it comes down to this: Obsess over the band, or support the band's wishes? Although the band is broken up, and long gone besides, it's still a question that deserves to be considered. So think about this point: is it your principals or your obsessions that rule?
