Publisher's Summary

Look to the shadowy corridor between chart-topping hits and the cryptic tales that lurk behind them in “Rock & Roll Nightmares: Blood On The Tracks.” This electrifying true crime tome peels back the curtain on the eerie nexus of melody and morbidity, guiding you through a chilling journey where the anthems of the airwaves meet their macabre muses. From the haunting whispers of real-life tragedies that echo through the lyrics of the most iconic songs to the darkly imaginative landscapes of made-up murders that have captivated listeners, each chapter delves deep into the heart of rock’s most unsettling mysteries.

“Rock & Roll Nightmares: Blood On The Tracks” doesn’t just skim the surface; it digs deep into the crates of the abyss, exploring how concept albums are woven with threads of the netherworld and how seemingly innocuous album art can harbor tales of dread. Discover the brutal beats that have moved fans to the unthinkable and the bands whose names pay homage to history’s most notorious killers. From the sorrowful strains of suicide-inspired ballads to the soul-stirring power of rock funeral hymns, this book unravels the enigma of death’s indelible imprint on the rock & roll fantasy.

Whether you’re a music aficionado, a lover of all things macabre, or simply in search of a journey through rock’s darkest recesses, “Rock & Roll Nightmares: Blood On The Tracks” promises an unforgettable voyage from guitars to graveyards.
