This one was a surprise. A hugely pleasant one. As has been mentioned before, we don't get too many books to review here which is a shame as I'm a huge reader / bibliophile and there are some great books out there about many of the acts we cover. This is by far the largest … Continue reading Book Review: “Bob Dylan – Mixing Up The Medicine” edited by Mark Davidson and Parker Fishel

Book Review: I Saw Satan at the 7-Eleven – Christopher Brett Bailey
We don't get too many books through for review here, which is a shame as I'm a big reader, and most of the ones we do get are non-fiction. This one sneaked in as a) it has Satan in it, and b) it has a handful of metal references scattered throughout. Works for me.

This lesson appears to have been learned with Grammar Free … Continue reading Book Review: Grammar Free In The UK – The Lockdown Letters by Derek & Dave Philpott

I've had this book sat on my "to review" shelf for far too long, as I've been struggling to think of how to approach it. I am in no way musical beyond listening to the stuff, and this is a book for creative musicians. So apologies in advance if I do the authors a disservice! … Continue reading Book Review: Thy Third Wave Ov Black – MetalGuitarScales.com
Book Review: Half A Ton Of Heavy Metal – Gareth Endean
I picked this book up by donating to the Kickstarter campaign we told you about last year, and although Gareth did send me an early copy on PDF I held off until getting the proper dead tree version before settling in to read and review it. Well, I let it sit there for a couple … Continue reading Book Review: Half A Ton Of Heavy Metal – Gareth Endean
