"How do youshowcase the Minutemen's DoubleNickels On The Dime , a sprawling opus of a punk record, spanningmore than 40 songs over four LP sides? It's a formidable task that could easilyget out of hand, but Michael T. Fournier takes a simple, no-nonsense approachin this installment of the Continuum 331/3 series, and this sensibility takes us into the heart and soul of theband and their crowning achievement. Fournier dives right into the band's history, giving us a short overview of thebasics; how they formed, the band members' various personalities, and how theygot to the point of releasing Double Nickels. The band was notorious forusing inside jokes and obscure references, which played itself out in the themeof the record. Fournier breaks down their overall approach, including aninteresting bit on how the album name and cover photo played off of SammyHagar's ICan't Drive 55, of all things. He also explains the structure of thealbum and how each separate side came into being, with each band member gettinga side, and leftovers ending up on the last side, nicknamed Chaff. From there, Fournier goes into each song on the album, providing back storiesand anecdotes, including interviews with bassist Mike Watt himself. The bookdoes a great job of pulling back the layers of quirkiness that the band paintedthemselves in, shining light on some of the mysteries of one of the 80sgreatest indie punk records."
