Corporate Rock Sucks : The Rise and Fall of SST Records
SST Records - Book - by Jim Ruland
(2022)
Greg
Ginn started SST Records in the sleepy beach town of Hermosa Beach, CA,
to supply ham radio enthusiasts with tuners and transmitters. But when
Ginn wanted to launch his band, Black Flag, no one was willing to take
them on. Determined to bring his music to the masses, Ginn turned SST
into a record label.
On
the back of Black Flag's relentless touring, guerilla marketing, and
refusal to back down, SST became the sound of the underground. In
Corporate Rock Sucks, music journalist Jim Ruland relays the unvarnished
story of SST Records, from its remarkable rise in notoriety to its
infamous downfall. With records by Black Flag, Minutemen, Husker Du, Bad
Brains, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr, Screaming Trees, Soundgarden, and
scores of obscure yet influential bands, SST was the most popular indie
label by the mid-80s--until a tsunami of legal jeopardy, financial
peril, and dysfunctional management brought the empire tumbling down.
