br. Nel mondo estremamente competitivo del rock ci sono due tipologie di persone: le superstar e gli schiavi, le leggende viventi e quelli che si consumano lentamente. In The Dark Stuff Nick Kent, il più celebre giornalista britannico, delinea i profili di ventidue tra i talenti più dotati e al contempo votati all'autodistruzione, da Brian Wilson a Miles Davis, da Jerry Lee Lewis a Keith Richards, da Syd Barrett a Kurt Cobain. Allargando i confini del new journalism, Kent - che suonò la chitarra nei Sex Pistols nel 1975 e fu poi il frontman dei Subterraneans - va in tour con i musicisti, ascolta le loro confessioni intime, ne cattura la decadenza e i pensieri turbolenti con una capacità di analisi rara nel mondo del rock multimilionario. Ma anziché celebrare lo stile di vita "sesso, droga e rock'n'roll" dei suoi soggetti - che lui stesso ha in gran parte condiviso - l'autore lo disseziona con chirurgica precisione e uno sguardo critico penetrante. Pubblicato originariamente nel 1994, The Dark Stuff è stato aggiornato e arricchito con capitoli su Eminem, Johnny Cash, Prince e Iggy Pop.

ill., br. I Clash hanno scritto una pagina fondamentale nella storia della musica rock. Subito diventati uno dei simboli del punk, hanno poi mescolato le influenze più disparate, incrociando reggae, dub, blues, funk, rap in un modo mai sentito prima, scandalizzando tutti e segnando la strada per la musica che ascoltiamo oggi. I Clash hanno dato voce e ritmo alla lotta contro le tensioni razziali, la disoccupazione, lo sfruttamento e le disuguaglianze della società inglese, nel passaggio cruciale tra gli anni settanta e ottanta. Ecco il libro definitivo sui Clash: le interviste a tutti i componenti del gruppo, compreso Joe Strummer, accompagnate da immagini esclusive, notizie e ricordi di sette incredibili anni di musica che ha cambiato il mondo. Il racconto in prima persona di una rivoluzione musicale.
