Supernatural Strategies for Making a Rock 'n' Roll Group
“Prescriptive how-to advice ranges over a wide number of subjects…and can be seen both as skewering the cultural idolatry associated with rock and as genuine counsel.”
Library Journal
Ian F. Svenonius's experience as an iconic underground rock musician-playing in such highly influential and revolutionary outfits as the Make-Up and the Nation of Ulysses-gives him special insight on techniques for not only starting but also surviving a rock 'n' roll group. Therefore, he's written an instructional guide, which doubles as a warning device, a philosophical text, an exercise in terror, and an aerobics manual.
This volume features essays on everything the would-be star should know to get started, such as sex, drugs, sound, group photo, the van, and manufacturing nostalgia. Supernatural Strategies will serve as an indispensable guide for a new generation just aching to boogie.
