Sobre IBD

Through a compilation of essays and profiles, Brit Wits shows how and why humour has been such a powerful catalyst and expressive force in rockers’ work. Ellis trains his attention on those whose music and persona exude defiance to investigate the nature of rock humour and how these groups have used it to attack prevailing social structures.
