As Beavis and Butthead would say 'This book kicks Ass'
I've always like my music on the heavy side, not so much the Cookie Monster singing, but I love the speed and intensity of the drums and guitar, but as far as the book go's it doesn't matter what music your into, because this story is about the people and what they are willing to do to succeed, so you don't need to be a metal head to follow the story.
This is the 6th book that I've read from this author and he writing as always is exceptional well done, and easy to read, so much so that you almost feel like a fly on the wall, just watching things play out, unlike the satanic panic movies of the 80's and 90's these characters are well developed with other aspects to there lives making them more relatable.
I have to say that the cover art is outstanding, and reminds me of Utopia Records in Sydney, which is a iconic Metal music store for as long as I can remember, and the style of the internal illustrations remind me of some of my first horror books like Edger Allan Poe.
Fair warning, this book contains a lot of drug-use, and a animal sacrifice.
I'm at a point with this author that he is a automatic add to my to buy list.
