"Ian Svenonius has come a long way since Sassy Magazine first
dubbed him the Sassiest Boy in America in 1991. The D.C. singer has
never been anything less than political to the extreme." --The
Village Voice
"In a sense the book is Mr. Svenonius's love letter to the good old
days of do-it-yourself punk concerts, though it's cleverly
disguised as a series of Marxian essays." --New York Times
"The pocket-sized book--given Svenonius's communism infatuation,
the parallel to Mao's Little Red Book is no mistake--contains
well-thought out arguments on a variety of subjects from vampires
to the origins of punk rock. It's often funny, but never in a
self-consciously ironic way." --The Washington Post
