"Unflinchingly honest and wildly entertaining, Someday All the Adults Will Die! captures the rise and fall of Texas punk in all its chaotic glory. As a photographer, Pat Blashill captured that scene from the inside - he didn't just document it, he lived it. Here, he gives the rest of us the same access, with an oral history that's as raw and emotional as the music itself." - Melissa Maerz, author of Alright, Alright, Alright: The Oral History of Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused
"Texas had Americas wildest, weirdest punk-and-after scenea primal playpen of shock rock, instinctive Dada, psychedelic freakout, performance art, scream therapy, and absurdist anti-politics. Austin native Pat Blashill was in the thick of it, photographing the messy madness as it unfolded. In Someday All the Adults Will Die!, Blashill shepherds the ultra-vivid memories of his contemporaries and threads through his own hindsight insights, forming an essential document rich with the textures of a long-gone real-gone time. Hilarious and poignant, this is a story never before told - and an inspiration to future freethinkers and troublemakers." - Simon Reynolds, author of Rip It Up and Start Again: Postpunk 19781984
"Someday All the Adults Will Die! is packed with thrilling images and stories from a wild scene in a crazy state." - James Hannaham, author of Didn't Nobody Give a Shit What Happened to Carlotta
