In 1977, Gérard Hervé Polisset wandered out at night into Stockholm’s underground scene to document what happened to be the first punk wave in Sweden. This book features around 60 of G. H. Polisset’s portraits from that year.

The music journalist Håkan Lahger was commissioned to find the people in the photographs thirty years later, to ask them about their experience from 1977 and why they joined the punk wave. Some were not alive anymore, but most could be reached to tell their stories. Some of them became today’s famous faces in Sweden’s cultural circles. Anders Grafström, Lena Endre and Olle Ljungström are some of the contributors.

This large format book showcases G. H. Polisset’s photographs as well as texts in Swedish and English by Håkan Lahger and Claes Britton.
