There's a new book about psuchobilly: Psychobilly by Craig Brackenridge.
The book was already mentioned on this forum. The news is, that you can now by it on ebay:
http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/stormscreen-productions
Stevenage. 1986. The Psychobilly disease is spreading across the UK and Harry Powell and his mates have got it bad. They are followers of the brutal blend of Rockabilly & Punk that is seeping across Britain’s musical underground and from the Klub Foot to Morecambe Bay, they will go anywhere for wrecking and rumpo.
Along with the booze, brawls and bunk-ups, Harry finds something even more special but a dark secret within the crew threatens to tear them apart. However, no matter what they face, their lives revolve around the adrenalin-fuelled, pounding beat of Psychobilly.
Craig Brackenridge has been writing about cinematic sleaze and demented Rock ‘n’ Roll since 1995 and his first novel ‘Psychobilly’ is solid slab of youth culture pulp soaked in knee-trembling smut. The book you can read with one hand! |

| I think his book Let's wreck was also very well written. And Hells bent on rockin is a great read too. He really did some effort to write about the beginning of all the important bands. |

Yeah he is very passoniate about the music, spoke to him at Bedlam recently don't know what his next project is but I do hope he does well with this book.
Its good that people can contribute to and support the music without playing in a band. |
