A lot of rock bands are wild. Many of them cultivate that sex, drugs, and rock and roll image. But Guns N' Roses is the real thing, so hedonistic and haunted by demons that they are ready to spin off the tracks at any given minute, as we will see. They did so. Repeatedly. Many of the questions and facts here will deal with their outrageous lifestyles and seemingly endless capacity for petty and profound feuds. The stories are jaw-dropping, and hopefully, you will enjoy every salacious detail. But let's not forget why we care in the first place: the amazing music. Sure, everyone appreciates Appetite for Destruction for what it is, the perfect debut album. But returning to their music today gives us a remarkable (though all too sparse) body of work. Patience is far more interesting than it seemed at the time. Use Your Illusion is not the bloated mess that critics made it out to be. It is a masterpiece. Even the troubled Chinese Democracy is far superior to what we had a right to expect. Guns N' Roses is a phenomenal band first-debauched train wreck second. We are excited that the boys are back together. While we wait for their next album, let's take a trip down memory lane. Do you know rock's ultimate bad boys? Let's see.

A lively comparison of musical meaning in Ohio's Jazz, metal, and hard rock scene. This vivid ethnography of the musical lives of heavy metal, rock, and jazz musicians in Cleveland and Akron, Ohio shows how musicians engage with the world of sound to forge meaningful experiences of music. Unlike most popular music studies, which only provide a scholar's view, this book is based on intensive fieldwork and hundreds of hours of in-depth interviews. Rich descriptions of the musical life of metal bars and jazz clubs get readers close to the people who make and listen to the music. Of special interest are Harris M. Berger's interviews with Timmy "The Ripper" Owens, now famous as lead singer for the pioneering heavy metal band, Judas Priest. Owens and other performers share their own experiences of the music, thereby challenging traditional notions of harmony and musical structure. Using ideas from practice theory and phenomenology, Berger shows that musical perception is a kind of practice, both creatively achieved by the listener and profoundly informed by social context.
