“What most songwriting guides won’t tell you is that success as a songwriter – however you define it – is as much about how you live your life and the way you see the world as it is about your skill with words and music.” The Art of Songwriting is a comprehensive guide to life, art and making great songs. It’s not about chasing a hit song. It’s not about theories that are interesting but no use filling the blank page. And most of all – it’s not just about the craft of son...

But the stylistic breadth and subcultural longevity of industrial music suggests that the common ground here might not be any one particular sound, but instead a network of ideologies. This book trac...
