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: The music world has seen some of the most iconic partnerships of all time the reader feels almost on a first-name acquaintance with many of them: Sonny and Cher, Mick and Marianne, Elvis and Priscilla, Ike and Tina.... Rock n Roll Love Stories looks at 14 of the best, taking us from the 1950s all the way up to the early 2000s. Along the way we see behind the public face of a whole range of relationships, from the straightforwardly romantic to the messily divided, and from the famous (and infamous) to the relatively unknown. All are engaging, full of contemporary detail, and come imbued with the energy and the spirit of the music world over the last half century.

Описание: John Lennon said: "We're going to live, or we're going to die. If we're dead, we're going to have to deal with that. If we're alive, we're going to have to deal with being alive." Is there a curse on Rock 'n' Roll? Is talent so powerful that it destroys? The death of one of the purest musical talents in recent years, Amy Winehouse, has reopened this and many other questions.

The "Club 27" really does exist, and it includes some of the best musicians of all time, very young adults who created works of art but who were themselves overwhelmed by art. This volume tells their story: from the first, Robert Johnson, who is said to have sold his soul to the devil for the gift of Blues, on to Ian Curtis and Kurt Cobain, and passing through the runaway lives of Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix, the mysterious death of Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, and the fatality of "the day the music died" in 1959, when Buddy Holly's airplane crashed.
