Bazillion Points Books has expanded its comprehensive library with two essential new offerings from the world of horror punk \/ hardcore and death metal \/ grindcore. These improved editions of two cult books deal authoritatively with matters near and dear to all dark hearts. MISERY OBSCURA: The Photography of Eerie Von, by Eerie Von<\/div>\n
Forewords by Lyle Preslar & Mike D’Antonio<\/div>\n
Hardcover, 160 full-color pages<\/div>\n
Ships with a bonus signed 8×10 full-cover lobby card<\/p>\n

Beginning as the unofficial photographer for punk legends the Misfits and later taking charge of the bass guitar as a founding member of underground pioneers Samhain and metal gods Danzig, Eerie Von captured the dark heart of rock’s most vital bleeding edge during a time when rock and roll was not only dangerous, but downright menacing. Hundreds of “fly-on-the-wall” photos from the best seats in the house document everything from the Misfits’ humble beginnings in Lodi, New Jersey, to the heights of Danzig’s stadium-rock glory. <\/p>\n

“Misery Obscura has an amazing fly-on-the-wall feel that is mesmerizing but unequivocal. He puts me right back in the 1980s, in the same space where the Misfits and Samhain were.”<\/p><\/div>\n

– Kirk Hammett, Metallica<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“Front row center for some of the most awesomely, brutally theatrical moments in punk rock history…insane amounts of fake blood, studded leather, and devil-locked hair.”<\/div>\n
– Pitchfork<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“A fascinating look-behind-the-curtain at some never-before seen photos from those bygone days”<\/p><\/div>\n

CHOOSING DEATH: The Improbable History of Death Metal & Grindcore, by Albert Mudrian;<\/div>\n
Forewords by Scott Carlson of Repulsion & BBC DJ John Peel<\/div>\n
400 pages Death-luxe edition softcover<\/div>\n
Ships with free limited color woven patch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mudrian’s widely praised blow-by-blow history of metal’s most relentless strains was first published in 2004. Picking up the gruesome path over a decade later, Mudrian leaves no tombstone unturned, delivers three new chapters, and expands existing material with the results of 50 new interviews. Brutal new 16-page color section features raw, bloody early photos of Death, Repulsion, Obituary, Deicide, Morbid Angel, Thanatos, At the Gates, Napalm Death, Carcass, Dismember, Nihilist, and many others. <\/p>\n

“Albert Mudrian, our disciple of all that is heavy and extreme, definitively documents this period of blissful cacophony for all to behold. Play fast or die!”<\/p><\/div>\n

\n
– Shane Embury, Napalm Death<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“The most informed and comprehensive document on death metal…the ultimate overview of heavy metal’s ugliest, most obnoxious, bastard offspring.”<\/div>\n
– Terrorizer<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“Mudrian, editor-in-chief of Decibel magazine, condenses painstaking and lengthy interviews to create this informative history of death metal, covering the genre’s origin in small clubs and basements on two continents.”<\/p><\/div>\n
