Empirically proving that--no matter where you are--kids wanna rock this is Chuck Klosterman s hilrious memoir of growing up as a shameless metalhead in Wyndmere North Dakotoa (population: 498). With a voice like Ace Frehley s guitar Klosterman hacks his way through hair-band history beginning with that fateful day in 1983 when his older brother brought home Mötley Crüe s Shout at the Devil. The fifth-grade Chuck wasn t quite ready to rock--his hair was too short and his farm was too quiet--but he still found a way to bang his nappy little head. Before the journey was over he would slow-dance to Poison sleep innocently beneath satanic pentagrams lust for Lita Ford and get ridiculously intellectual about Guns N Roses. C mon and feel his noize.
