This American tale of growing up with 1980's music with hair has a level of extraordinary! More people of this age might not understand Klosterman's eyes. In it, the protagonist feels that the music of power hair has magic and is not fully greeted with integrity by the critical consumers of the time. The book has enlightening on being of an age to be satisfied with very little culture outside of 'strip malls' and the anticipation of the glam of new music recordings by the likes of Motley Crue and Cinderella.
The novel is sometimes uneven but the writer's indefatigable belief that hair music be considered seriously caries the reader through. Often Chuck discloses his love of alcoholic drink as a parallel to which band the writer is hearing. Much discussion of Guns N Roses amalgamation of punk and hair is thoughtfully presented. Overall, the author makes a significant angle for the inclusion of metal of hair for serious consideration, and since publishing much more metal has been at the forefront of media (VH1, movies called 'Rock Star' with Marky Mark), so Klosterman was ahead of the bend. Rumor is out on a movie version of the tome, though it may not be the academic sort as this book.
