- Unlovable / by Hayes, Darren,author.;
"Darren Hayes was always a storyteller. Growing up in suburban Queensland in the 1970s, his vivid imagination offered an escape from the realities of his daily life. Among childhood trauma, domestic violence and relentless bullying, he told himself he was going to be a pop star - and he did it. But while Savage Garden achieved astonishing success, with multiple Australian number 1s, breaking into the US charts and selling over 35 million albums worldwide, the true story of Darren's life was far more challenging than a three-minute pop song. In Unlovable, for the first time, Darren opens up about the hidden battles that shaped his journey. Behind the glamorous facade of success, he was facing anxiety and depression rooted in childhood trauma and violence, and navigating his sexuality in a world - and industry - that was not always accepting. This is not a memoir about the dizzying heights of fame; it's a survivor's story of enduring and overcoming profound lifelong scars. Told with Darren's raw honesty and lyricism, Unlovable is a magical dark fairytale that reclaims the terrors and obstacles of his past, revealing the resilient and courageous person that he is today."--

Through intimate portraits of friends and acquaintances from Bob Weir and Jerry Garcia to Timothy Leary and Steve Jobs, [this book] traces the generational passage by which the counterculture became the culture, and it shows why learning to accept love may be the hardest thing we ever ask of ourselves"--Amazon.com.

From its inception, punk music has been identified by two factors: its proximity to "authenticity," and its reliance on an antiestablishment ethos. Yet, in the mid- to late '90s, major record labels sought to capitalize on punk's rebellious undertones, leading to a schism in the scene: to accept the cash flow of the majors, or stick to indie cred? Sellout chronicles the evolution of the punk scene during this era, focusing on prominent bands as they experienced the last "gold rush" of the music industry. Within it, music writer Dan Ozzi follows the rise of successful bands like Green Day and Jimmy Eat World, as well as the implosion of groups like Jawbreaker and At the Drive-In, who buckled under the pressure of their striving labels. Featuring original interviews and personal stories from members of eleven of modern punk's most (in)famous bands, Sellout is the history of the evolution of the music industry, and a punk rock lover's guide to the chaotic darlings of the post-grunge era.

- Everything will be alright in the end [sound recording] / by Weezer (Musical group)composer,performer.;
Produced by Ric Ocasek ; Recorded by Samuel Bell ; Additional Production and Engineering by Shawn Everett.Performed by Weezer (Brian Bell, Rivers Cuomo, Scott Sariner, Patrick Wilson) ; with instrumentalists and vocalists accompanying.Recorded at The Village, in Los Angeles, California ; Assistant Engineers: Chris Owens, Vanessa Wormer, Alex Williams.Mixed by Tom Lord-Alge at South Beach Studios, in Miami, Florida ; Assistant Engineer: Eddie Rendini.Mastered by Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound, in New York City, New York ; Studio Technicians: Doug Forsdick, Richie Mazzetta, Ren Massingill.Weezer has released a myriad of celebrated, chart-topping albums, since forming in 1992, selling over 13 million records worldwide. The band chose to deliberately dial down the tempo in 2010, a move Rivers Cuomo, singer and guitarist, says allowed him to write at a slower pace, giving the songs he wanted to use for an album time to gradually grow into their final forms. He started almost every song on the piano, eventually transferring them to the guitar before taking them to the band. When it came time to record the material, Weezer reunited with Ric Ocasek, the man who helped them make some of their most iconic album-length work; his exacting production, anchored as much in pummeling arena rock as new wave pop, polishes and preserves Cuomo's quirks, but it's also true that Rivers has decided to indulge in his eccentricities once again. Everything Will Be Alright In The End, which marks Weezer's ninth studio album, is a stand-out gem in the band's vast and varied catalog, a reflection of a much-loved band at their very best. Organized thematically around three groups of songs, it is an album that utilizes that sound from the band's earliest days to tell new stories in 2014, creating some of the finest, most heartfelt songs Weezer has ever recorded; with the dexterous syncopation providing a midpoint palate-cleanser and a neo-progressive rock suite concluding the proceedings. By having the record follow these twisty detours, Cuomo provides a counterpoint to the classic pop Weezer pursues elsewhere, but even such succinct and sculpted pop never feels like a desperate scramble back home. Rather, a feeling of acceptance underpins this album: a sense that Weezer made another record of massive, hooky rock because they know it's what they do best. -- Editorial Reviews taken and adapted from Amazon.com and Barnes And Noble websites.
