I'm the author of SOUND OF THE BEAST: THE COMPLETE HEADBANGING HISTORY OF HEAVY METAL -- also known as HOLLEN-LARM (Deutsche), DABLUV HLAS (Czech), PEDON METELI (Suomi), SOUND OF THE BEAST (Francais), HEBI METARE (Japanese), and EL SONIDO DE LA BESTIA (Espanol)]. Italian, Croatian, Serbian, and Portuguese translations will be available during 2009.
Now in its fifth year on satellite radio, my weekly metal history hour, BLOODY ROOTS, airs Saturdays Noon ET, Sundays 2PM ET, Tuesdays 3PM ET & Thursdays 9PM ET on SiriusXM LIQUID METAL [Sirius 27 / XM 42]. Other operations are ongoing at the Bazillion Points demo blog at BAZILLIONPOINTS.INFO .
In 2008 I launched the publishing house BAZILLION POINTS, home to Daniel Ekeroth's SWEDISH DEATH METAL; Andy McCoy's autobiography SHERIFF MCCOY; Albert Mudrian's ESCOGER MUERTE; Jeff Wagner's history of progressive metal; ONCE UPON A NIGHTWISH: THE OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY 1996-2006; and Jon Kristiansen's underground opus METALION: THE SLAYER MAG DIARIES. It's here: WWW.BAZILLIONPOINTS.COM
Before that the bands Half Japanese, Grouse Mountain Skyride, Willing, Les Opportunistes, and Dark Noerd the Beholder, and sound creation in New York for dance projects, installations, films, busts, and other sorcery. Currently working on a demo with a Satanic hardcore band with three really good friends, probably called CRUSHING THE COLOSSUS or something like that.
