Exploring the straight edge hardcore punk movement of the 1980s, this book delves into its unique sound, visual style, and the adoption of vegetarianism among its followers. It examines the evolution of the movement as its "don't drink, don't smoke" ethos spread globally, highlighting the challenges adherents faced in defining their ideals and boundaries. The narrative also addresses the emergence of a militant fringe, shedding light on one of the most resilient yet often misunderstood youth subcultures in music history.
