Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Heroic and absurd, scurrilous and profound, Who Killed Mister Moonlight? charts the descent of four intelligent young men with faces like ruby-eyed dime-store skull rings into a glittering and very modern maelstrom. Fast, compelling, and disarmingly honest, this is an invaluable account of a strange and spectral cultural twilight era that we shall almost certainly never see again. Highly recommended." - Alan Moore, author of V For Vendetta and Watchmen. Beginning with the creation of Bauhaus's seminal debut hit 'Bela Lugosi's Dead', David J. Haskins offers a no-holds-barred account of his band's rapid rise to fame and glory in the late 70s, their sudden dissolution in the 80s, and their subsequent--and often strained--reunions. In between, he explores his work as a solo performer, and with acclaimed trio Love And Rockets--culminating in the devastating fire that ripped through the sessions for their 1996 album Sweet F.A. He also delves deep into his exploration of the occult, drawing together a diverse cast of supporting characters, including William S. Burroughs, Alan Moore, Genesis P. Orridge, and Rick Rubin. Bristling with power and passion, music and magic, Who Killed Mister Moonlight? is a rock 'n' roll memoir like no other.

Book Synopsis The Murder of Mr Moonlight by : Catherine Fegan
Download or read book The Murder of Mr Moonlight written by Catherine Fegan and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER 'I was a very vulnerable young woman with three small children. I was lost ... Pat Quirke tried to come in and control everything' Bobby Ryan's disappearance in rural Tipperary in June 2011 mystified all who knew him. The truck-driver and part-time DJ (known as Mr Moonlight) was an easy-going fellow with no enemies. Or so everyone thought. When Ryan's body was found 22 months later on the farm of Mary Lowry, the wealthy young widow he had been seeing, it was clear that he had met a violent end. And the most likely person to have brought about that end? Pat Quirke, the man who had 'discovered' the body - Mary Lowry's brother-in-law, financial advisor, tenant and one-time lover. Following the longest running murder trial in Irish criminal history Quirke was convicted of murder in May 2019. Getting to that day had taken years of exhaustive work by gardaí. The Murder of Mr Moonlight is the definitive account of their investigation as well as the compelling story of how an innocent man paid the price for another man's obsessions. __________ 'Absolutely compulsive reading ... a page-turner' Eamon Dunphy '[An] excellent book that shows all the colours of the story that intrigued the nation' Irish Daily Mail 'Well-researched and highly readable ... Fegan proves her journalistic mettle, delivering forensic detail in accessible language ... Anyone who followed the trial will not be disappointed by Fegan's book' Business Post

Book excerpt: Meet Jaya Hasen, 30, a workaholic who hasn't had a break in years from her post as Fashion Designer at Hasen House, the company owned by her family. Nepotism, much? Jaya thinks so, too, hence her need to constantly prove herself She lives for her job, neglecting every other aspect of her life: friends, family, her health, and even when out on a date, she's counting the minutes until it's no longer unpolite to leave and go back to work. When burnout threatens to set in and her younger brother invites her to spend a couple of weeks in Kawa Bay, with him and his boyfriend, Jaya doesn't hesitate to say yes, despite fearing she'll end up being the proverbial third wheel. But what promised to be a fortnight of relaxing in the sun soon turns into a hurricane of emotions when she comes across local surfer Song Junhae, a man unlike anyone she's ever met. Stubbornly insisting on listening only to her heart, Jaya finds that the summer fling not meant to last has grown into something else - something she doesn't want to put an end to, despite the disapproval of family and friends. But will she and Junhae be strong enough to face all obstacles just to prove everyone else wrong? And how much is Jaya willing to sacrifice for the sake of a man she barely knows?

Book Synopsis T.E.D. Klein and the Rupture of Civilization by : Thomas Phillips
Download or read book T.E.D. Klein and the Rupture of Civilization written by Thomas Phillips and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-07-07 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lauded by critics yet largely unappreciated by fans of horror and “weird fiction,” T.E.D. Klein is considered one of the great horror writers, despite his scant body of work. His prose blends the mundane and the supernatural, conjuring the monstrous and the malign with accessible but charged discourse that breaks with the formulaic entries in the genre. Exploring a range of topics from religious fundamentalism and right wing extremism to fashionable pessimism and the rise of “digital humanities,” the author argues that Klein’s work is a prime example of what he terms “critical horror,” a distinct subgenre that entertains while questioning individual and cultural complacency.
Download or read book No Future written by Matthew Worley and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-21 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'No Feelings', 'No Fun', 'No Future'. The years 1976–84 saw punk emerge and evolve as a fashion, a musical form, an attitude and an aesthetic. Against a backdrop of social fragmentation, violence, high unemployment and socio-economic change, punk rejuvenated and re-energised British youth culture, inserting marginal voices and political ideas into pop. Fanzines and independent labels flourished; an emphasis on doing it yourself enabled provincial scenes to form beyond London's media glare. This was the period of Rock Against Racism and benefit gigs for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and the striking miners. Matthew Worley charts the full spectrum of punk's cultural development from the Sex Pistols, Buzzcocks and Slits through the post-punk of Joy Division, the industrial culture of Throbbing Gristle and onto the 1980s diaspora of anarcho-punk, Oi! and goth. He recaptures punk's anarchic force as a medium through which the frustrated and the disaffected could reject, revolt and re-invent.

Book Synopsis Aesthetic Apprehensions by : Lene M. Johannessen
Download or read book Aesthetic Apprehensions written by Lene M. Johannessen and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aesthetic Apprehensions: Silences and Absences in False Familiarities is a scholarly conversation about encounters between habitual customs of reading and seeing and their ruptures and ossifications. In closely connected discourses, the thirteen essays collected here set out to carefully probe the ways our aesthetic immersions are obfuscated by deep-seated epistemological and ideological apprehensions by focusing on how the tropology carried by silence, absence, and false familarity crystallize to define the gaps that open up. As they figure in the subtitle of this volume, the tropes may seem straightforward enough, but a closer examination of their function in relation to social, cultural, and political assumptions and gestalts reveal troubling oversights. Aesthetic Apprehensions comes to name the attempt at capturing the outlier meanings residing in habituated receptions as well as the uneasy relations that result from aesthetic practices already in place, emphasizing the kinds of thresholds of sense and sensation which occasion rupture and creativity. Such, after all, is the promise of the threshold, of the liminal: to encourage our leap into otherness, for then to find ourselves and our sensing again, and anew in novel comprehensions.

Book Synopsis Season of the Witch: The Book of Goth by : Cathi Unsworth
Download or read book Season of the Witch: The Book of Goth written by Cathi Unsworth and published by Nine Eight Books. This book was released on 2023-05-11 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Times Book of the Year A Mojo Book of the Year A Louder Than War Book of the Year A Waterstones Book of the Year A Resident Book of the Year 'A beautifully written, meticulously researched account. 4/5.' - CLASSIC POP 1979. Months of industrial action throughout the winter have left the dead unburied and mountains of rubbish piling up in the streets. Punk has reached its bleak climax with the fatal heroin overdose of Sid Vicious while awaiting trial for the murder of his girlfriend. Unlikely alliances of outsiders prepare to seize power, set the political agenda and write the soundtrack for the years to come. Their figureheads are two very different kinds of dominatrices... As Margaret Thatcher enters 10 Downing Street, a handful of bands born of punk - Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division and the Cure - find a way to distil the dissonance and darkness of the shifting decade into a new form of music. Pushing at the taboos the Sex Pistols had unlocked and dancing with the fetishistic, all will become global stars of goth. By the time Thatcher is cast out of office in 1990, the arrival of goth will have imprinted on the cultural landscape as much as the Iron Lady herself. Forty years on, author Cathi Unsworth provides the first comprehensive overview of the music, context and lasting legacy of goth. This is the story of how goth was shaped by the politics of the era - from the miners' strikes and privatisation to the Troubles and AIDS - as well as how its rock 'n' roll outlaw imagery and music cross-pollinated throughout Britain and internationally, speaking to a generation of alienated youths. A fascinating social history, Season of the Witch tells the tale of an enduring counter-culture, one that steadfastly refuses to give up the ghost.

Book Synopsis A Kiss across the Ocean by : Richard T. Rodríguez
Download or read book A Kiss across the Ocean written by Richard T. Rodríguez and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-08 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Kiss across the Ocean Richard T. Rodríguez examines the relationship between British post-punk musicians and their Latinx audiences in the United States since the 1980s. Melding memoir with cultural criticism, Rodríguez spotlights a host of influential bands and performers including Siouxsie and the Banshees, Adam Ant, Bauhaus, Soft Cell, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, and Pet Shop Boys. He recounts these bands’ importance for him and other Latinx kids and discusses their frequent identification with these bands’ glamorous performance of difference. Whether it was Siouxsie Sioux drawing inspiration from Latinx contemporaries and cultural practices or how Soft Cell singer Marc Almond’s lyrics were attuned to the vibrancy of queer Latinidad, Rodríguez shows how Latinx culture helped shape British post-punk. He traces the fandom networks that link these groups across space and time to illuminate how popular music establishes and facilitates intimate relations across the Atlantic. In so doing, he demonstrates how the music and styles that have come to define the 1980s hold significant sway over younger generations equally enthused by their matchlessly pleasurable and political reverberations.
