In "The Most Interesting Man In The World", the godfather of New York City hardcore invites you into his lower east side pad to regale you with tales from his extraordinary life among mobsters, punk rockers, and a bevy of iconic artists and personalities — none of whom is as interesting or fascinating as the inimitable Vinnie Stigma.

 

Born Vincent Capuccio on December 3, 1955, Vinnie Stigma — as his countless friends and fans lovingly refer to him — is the founder and guitarist of New York City's legendary hardcore band AGNOSTIC FRONT. He's also one of the Big Apple's earliest punk rockers, having frequented such eclectic downtown haunts as Max's Kansas City, The Electric Circus, and, of course, CBGB while it was still known as Hilly's on the Bowery during the early 1970s.

 

Featuring vintage photos throughout, a handful of signature Italian recipes, even a four-page comic book and crossword puzzle, "The Most Interesting Man In The World" is a journey through a life unlike any other. No one sees or experiences the world quite like Vinnie Stigma.

 

Vinnie Stigma also performs as a solo artist with STIGMA and is the former guitarist of MADBALL. Vinnie has acted in a number of independent films and has appeared on countless albums as a guest artist.
