Описание: Rock the Shack takes us to the places we long for. For the first time in the history of humankind, more people live in cities than in the country. Yet, at the same time, more and more city dwellers are yearning for rural farms, mountain cabins, or seaside homes. These kinds of refuges offer modern men and women a promise of what urban centers usually cannot provide: quiet, relaxation, being out of reach, getting back to basics, feeling human again. Rock the Shack is a survey of such contemporary refuges from around the world—from basic to luxury. The book features a compelling range of sparingly to intricately furnished cabins, cottages, second homes, tree houses, transformations, shelters, and cocoons. The look of the included structures from the outside is just as important as the view from inside. What these diverse projects have in common is an exceptional spirit that melds the uniqueness of a geographic location with the individual character of the building’s owner and architect.

Описание: This book is dedicated to Metal, a genre of rock music with aggressive rhythms, powerful sounds and, at times, disturbing themes. It features an in-depth reconstruction of the genre's origins and development, including all the major contributing genres and sub-genres. An important part of the book is dedicated to Hard Rock, from which Metal derives.

Indeed, it is not possible to speak of Metal without mentioning its roots, which lie in the classic Hard Rock of bands that made music history, bands like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Featuring an outstanding selection of wonderful images, this book analyses the development of these and other Hard Rock groups that played a significant role in the evolution of Metal through their sounds, lyrics, themes and the trends they set. Specific sections are dedicated to the various types of Metal: Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Nu-Metal, Power Metal, Death Metal and Black Metal.

Minor movements and sub-genres of Metal are also discussed, to help readers understand the vastness of the whole spectrum of this musical genre. Particularly captivating graphics, designs, lettering and colours specifically designed to differentiate the various stages of this complex evolution, allow us to distinguish, at a glance, the various themes and appreciate, even at an aesthetic level, the unfolding of a development marked by recognisable milestones and unique atmospheres. AUTHORS: Guitarist Kerry King is a founding member of the Grammy Award winning thrash-metal group Slayer.

Since its 1983 debut, Show No Mercy, the band has put out one masterpiece after another, including its controversial and celebrated 1986 album, Reign in Blood. Outside of Slayer, King played guitar with Megadeth at their early shows and has performed guest guitar on songs by artists ranging from the Beastie Boys to Pantera to Rob Zombie. In his off time, he breeds snakes and works on his clothing line, KFK Ministries.

Kory Grow is the senior editor of Revolver magazine, the United States' largest magazine covering hard rock and heavy metal. In his career, he's interviewed artists ranging from Metallica to Ozzy Osbourne to Avenged Sevenfold to Darkthrone. He's traveled to Norway to drink with black-metal bands and to Florida to listen to rough mixes of death-metal albums before they were released.

He has also written about heavy metal for Guitar World, Metal Hammer, Decibel, Alternative Press, The Village Voice, and more. He lives in Astoria, New York, with his wife and cat. SELLING POINTS: The history and evolution of heavy metal, from its origins to the most recent metal trends.

Описание: It’s perhaps the relative modernity of rock ’n’ roll that makes the genre a minefield of myths and legends accepted as truth. History hasn’t had time to dissect the bunk. Until now. Discover the real stories behind rock’s biggest crocks, how they came to be and why they have persisted. Did Cass Elliott really asphyxiate herself with a ham sandwich? Did the Beatles spark a spliff in Buckingham? Did Willie Nelson do the same in the White House? Did Keith Richards get a complete “oil change” at a Swiss clinic in 1973 to pass a drug test necessary to embark on an American tour with the Stones? Then there’s the freaky (did Michael Jackson own the remains of the Elephant Man?), the quasi-medical (Rod Stewart and that stomach pump?), the culinary (did Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne really do all those things to bats, chickens, etc. on stage?), and the apocryphal (did Robert Johnson sell his soul to the Prince of Darkness in exchange for mastery of the blues?). In all, more than 50 enduring lies are examined, explained, and debunked.

Описание: The story of rock lives in Lynn Goldsmith’s photographs. After coming of age in the Midwest in the tumultuous 1960s, she crashed the music scene in New York and emerged as one of its leading image-makers. She chronicled Bruce Springsteen’s passage to glory, the Rolling Stone’s legendary stadium tours, Michael Jackson’s staggering ascent, U2’s arrival in New York and the brooding force of Bob Marley. Culture heroes like Bob Dylan and Patti Smith became frequent subjects for her lens. The range of her work is staggering. In Rock and Roll Stories, she shares the best of this work.

Описание: This volume traces through more than 150 years of Italian automotive history. A history made, above all, by men who have put creativity, hard work, inspiration, ingenuity, and tenacity to use in developing their ideas and in giving form to this revolutionary instrument of human mobility, a symbol of liberty that even today represents a factor of the progress and wealth of a country. The evolution of this means of transport can be divided into multiple stages: from the first internal combustion engine to Carlo Menon’s diminutive Rebus of the late 1800s; from the first races to the World War I period, on to the fantastic 1920s, when Italy was realizing four-wheeled masterpieces that were envied and demanded all around the world. And then, the last conflict, the reconstruction, the economic boom, the mass motorization, the unforgettable “Dolce Vita,” the dark years of the oil crisis, the international competition during the 1980s and 1990s, and the challenges of the new century: those of containing emissions, optimizing dimensions, reducing consumption. All under the banner of “Made in Italy,” unique and inimitable, with its creation of unforgettable models making automotive history and marking the social life of the nation: the Topolino, the 500, the Panda, the Lancia Lambda and Fulvia, the Alfa Romeo Duetto and Giulietta, the Ferrari Testarossa, and so on, up to the most recent creations of the Third Millennium. But also automobiles to make people dream, exalted in this volume through spectacular images: the Ferrari 250 GTO, the Maserati 3500GT and Miura, the Lamborghini Countach and Diablo, the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale and Montreal, the Lancia B24 and Stratos, all the way up to the recent Dream Cars, like the Ferrari FF and F12 Berlinetta, or like the Quattroporte and the Gran Coupe, and the latest high-performance evolutions of the “Lambo”: the Murcielago, the Gallardo, or the extreme Aventador.
