"Like its author, Supernatural Strategies is part tongue-in-cheek, part deadly serious--a satire of rock's consumerist origins but also a thoughtful treatise on what it means to devote yourself to a collective . . . Drawing from the wisdom of rock 'n' roll's most famous ghosts, Svenonius's advice ranges from hilarious to cryptic to surprisingly useful." --Pitchfork "Svenonius hasn't written a basic 'How to Make It in the Music Business' book. Rather, the writer, online talk show host and, most important, singer in a series of breathtaking rock 'n' roll bands (the Nation of Ulysses, the Make-Up, Chain & the Gang), is drawing a line in the sand and doing so with what he hopes will finally define the undefinable." --Los Angeles Times IAN SVENONIUS'S EXPERIENCE AS AN ICONIC UNDERGROUND ROCK MUSICIAN--playing in such highly influential and revolutionary outfits as the Make-Up and Nation of Ulysses--gives him special insight on techniques for not only starting but also surviving a rock 'n' roll group. Therefore, he's written an instructional guide, which doubles as a warning device, a philosophical text, an exercise in terror, an aerobics manual, and a coloring book. This volume features essays on everything the would-be star should know to get started, such as Sex, Drugs, Sound, Group Photo, The Van, and Manufacturing Nostalgia. The book also has black-and-white illustrations. Supernatural Strategies for Making a Rock 'n' Roll Group will serve as an indispensable guide for a new generation just aching to boogie.
