Hardcore producer and engineer Spot (Misfits, Black Flag, Hüsker Dü, Minutemen) is also a master photographer. Edited by Johan Kugelberg and Ryan Richardson, Sounds of Two Eyes Opening is a narrative of Southern California chiaroscuro: all the shots of punks and bands and clubs are dark swatches of blacks and grays with brief illuminations of white skin, bringing about a general claustrophobic cul-de-sac feeling. These images sit in contrast to the wide open endlessness of Spot's beach photographs: beauty, youth and body worship, white teeth, big hair, the eternal trilogy of sun/sand/sea, the promise of the unbroken horizon. Spanning the late 1960s through the early 1980s, Sounds of Two Eyes Opening offers an amazing portrait of Southern California coastal life: surfing, bikinis, roller skating and skate boarding's fledgling days are set in contrast to iconic shots of all the key denizens of hardcore punk rock as it is being invented; candid shots of Black Flag, The Germs, Minutemen abut those of everyday punks, fans, cops, clubs and now-shuttered rehearsal spaces.

Slipcase Edition includes:

• Hardbound, 272 page book, printed on matte art paper, with 4-color black-and-white printing, a lay flat binding.
• 7-inch picture vinyl of Spot's "Too Wise To Crack" with silk screened art by Ed Templeton.
• 2-sided poster
• High quality photo print from the book
