Punk Is a Four-Letter Word: Columns, Articles and Essays 1991-2002

The finest written words from the legendarily opinionated frontman and songwriter of Screeching Weasel and The Riverdales. Culled from his own zine, Panic Button, caustic columns from Maximum Rock N Roll, and two new essays, including 'The Infinite Joys Of Being A Professional Musician', this is a smart (not to say smart-assed) collection of sarcastic, accusatory, hilarious and often self-deprecating diatribes, rants, opinion pieces, reportage, and...

punk is a four letter word

Well, if you like ben weasel or screeching weasel you'll like this book. It was pretty short and sweet. Some of the chapters were really entertaining and interesting while there were a few which seemed to drag on a bit. I am a big screeching weasel fan so, I may be a bit biased to whether or not this is entertaining. But its cheap so what the hell right?

Life through essays....

An excellent read. Very engaging. Buy it and share it.

Ben Weasel Don't Like It !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you like people who call em' like they see em',with brutal honesty then you should like reading this book. Ben Weasel is a no BS kinda guy.....and his book "Punk is a Four Letter Word" sheds some light on his feelings toward well, just about everything. The book is a GOOD read, and an easy one. I'm not a big reader, and I finished it one sitting.

Ben's greatest hits!!!

This is the greatest hits of words without ever having been honored as such, Ben has been writing articles for years but if you have never been in the right place at the right time you would never know about it,so you have missed out, until now.If you have read some of his articles before, this is the chance to read them again and probably some you've missed, this book is about years of thoughts and life, my life, your life, their life, you will be able to relate to something in this book, from your fantasies to actual events that took place in your life, to your opinions that you had on your favorite music that you wished you could tell someone about if only someone listened, to your memories about past jobs, about when you met that "famous" person,and all the things you've ever thought about, you can relive all those moments through this book. Or if you've had the "perfect" life, read this book and feel superior.Ben is an EXCELLENT writer and if you've never been a fan of his before after reading this book you will be.You will want to send him a Christmas card with money in it.

Words of wisdom from Weasel

Why 5 stars? Well, it's because this is the kind of book you will take with you to work and totally slack off from your responsibilities because you get caught up in reading it. You'll laugh while learning about the music industry and about Ben's experiences in it. Even though you're probably interested in reading this because you are a Screeching Weasel fan, I don't think you have to be to enjoy it. So if you wanna support a good cause, buy this book... He can always use the dough.
