Thank you in advance for your support bringing this essential archive to life! About the book They were unlike any other band in the punk scene they called home. NoMeansNo started in the basement of the family home of brothers Rob and John Wright in 1979. For the next three decades, they would add and then replace a guitar player, sign a record deal with Alternative Tentacles and tour the world. All along the way, they kept their integrity, saying "NO" to many mainstream opportunities. It was for this reason the band (intentionally) never became a household name, but earned the respect and love of thousands of fans around the world, including some who became big rock stars themselves. They were expertly skilled musicians playing a new kind of punk: intelligent, soulful, hilarious, and complex. They were also really nice Canadian dudes. NoMeansNo: From Obscurity to Oblivion is the fully authorized oral and visual history of this highly influential and enigmatic band which has never been told before now. Author Jason Lamb obtained exclusive access to all four former members and interviewed hundreds of people in their orbit, from managers and roadies to fellow musicians, friends, and family members. The result is their complete story, from the band's inception in 1979 to their retirement in 2016, along with hundreds of photos, posters, and memorabilia, much of which has never been seen publicly before. For established fans, this book serves as a "love letter" to their favorite group and provides many details previously unknown. For those curious about the story and influence of NoMeansNo, it reveals an eye-opening tale of how a punk band could be world class musicians while truly "doing it themselves." Their impact and importance cannot be overstated, and this is the essential archive.  LEARN MORE AND PREORDER Help bring to life The Workers’ Way to Freedom and Other Council Communist Writings by Anton Pannekoek, edited and introduced by Robyn K. Winters, and copublished with Working Class History. This is a compilation of important works, most of which have never been published before in this format. At a time when workers around the world are standing up and fighting back, it has never been more important to look back at those who came before us, and learn from their experiences. This book clearly lays out the ideas of one of the key theoreticians of council communism—a Marxist alternative to both Leninism and social democracy that instead emphasized working-class self-emancipation through workers’ councils. Learn more and preorder on the new Kickstarter along with many related rewards including a limited-edition, museum quality matte poster featuring the book cover illustration by Pannekoek of the Milky Way, along with a quotation which reads: "To think for oneself, to think out what is true and right, with a head dulled by fatigue, is the most difficult task, it is much harder than to pay and to obey. But it is the only way to freedom."
