Yeah, Eric is a great writer and he tells a good tale - esp given that many might look at the subject matter and might not expect much gold to be found therein

I have an interview w/ him about the book going up on The Quietus, er, when they get round to putting it up, hopefully this week

sweet! they are on of my favorites and i think obv the tragedy was real sad and one of the real big losses for us underground rock of that period to me

Does this book really try and link Black Lips to Billy Childish? I find that distasteful, to say the least.

five months pass...

If you have any kind of appetite for garage or punk, you will be moved to become a huntsman.

That's for sure. My local stores had exactly zero of the ones I was missing, so while reading the book, I'd hunt for stuff online. I ranked ones with my own preferences: http://www.fastnbulbous.com/gunk-punk.htm
