UK Subs And Earth Island Books Announce Charlie Harper’s ‘An Anarchy Of Demons’ Autobiography

Charlie is delighted to announce that his long anticipated autobiography is finished, and will be published later this year by the renowned UK independent publishers Earth Island Books.

Charlie’s fascinating story is told in his own unique style, taking the reader through his early years as a ‘war baby’, his time at boarding schools for misfit boys, his adventurous youth, his struggles and escapades as a bass player, his turbulent personal life as well as his incredible journey with the U.K. Subs, as a solo artist and with his many side-project bands.

Illustrated throughout with many unseen photos from his own collection, this will be without doubt, the most talked about punk rock book of the year.

The book boasts a wonderful Foreword written by Rancid’s Lars Frederiksen with the book’s stunning cover artwork being supplied by Steve Dann (Magpie Art), of which the original hangs in Charlie’s house.

‘An Anarchy of Demons’ will be available to buy as a paperback, as a limited edition hardback as well as an e-Book.

You can order your copy of the paperback from Earth Island Books now.

Orders received directly at the publishers will receive the first print edition of the book, along with an A3 poster, a bookmark and postcards.

You can place your order now and the books will be sent out, direct to you, this summer.

The book will be officially published and widely available in all shops and resellers from September 2025.
