Missing Like Teeth: An Oral History of Winnipeg Underground Rock 1990-2001 (Inscribed) - Birnie, Sheldon

INSCRIPTION FROM SHELDON on title page; From 1990 to 2001, while the popular radio waves were consumed with the buzz of grunge and alternative rock, Winnipeg managed to craft a unique underground music scene that moved in its own direction. At once informed by their predecessors and stubbornly determined to create the art that they wanted to see made, bands like Kittens, Propagandhi, and the Weakerthans built on this foundation and ultimately found success beyond the Perimeter Highway, though they always remained true to the values and defiant spirit that first allowed them to crawl up from the muddy banks of the Red River. Author Sheldon Birnie has gone to painstaking lengths to document one of the most important decades in Winnipeg's musical history. Through detailed research and extensive interviews, Missing Like Teeth paints a vivid picture of the Heart of the Continent and the characters that inhabited its tiny stages from 1990 to 2001.
