Canadian punk finally gets the book it deserves.
In Too Deep, written by music journalists Matt Bobkin and Adam Feibel, drops June 3, 2025 via House of Anansi Press—and it’s a must for anyone who grew up on Warped Tour anthems and MuchMusic countdowns.
This book dives deep into the explosion of early 2000s Canadian punk and pop-punk, tracing how bands like Sum 41, Simple Plan, Billy Talent, Silverstein, Alexisonfire, and even artists like Avril Lavigne and Fefe Dobson helped put Canada on the global punk map. Packed with exclusive interviews, scene history, and behind-the-curtain stories, In Too Deep explores how this wave of bands kept punk’s DIY spirit alive while crashing into the mainstream.
Whether you were screaming along to “Fat Lip” or discovering underground shows in church basements, this is a chapter of punk history that hits close to home—and finally, it’s being told right.
