Metallic Dreams
Bok av Mark Rice
Scottish metal vocalist Spark MacDubh wakes covered in snow on a street of his home town. His most recent memories are of dying and being jolted back to life by a force from the skies. He sets out to restart his band, which split years earlier in a hail of blood rituals, violence, depravity and jail time. In communication with entities he believes to be celestial, MacDubh leads the band out on tour...and mayhem follows. Their trail of destruction, fornication, occultism and transcendent riffage attracts the attention of a particularly savage demon. With the voices in his head urging him down ever-darker paths, Spark initiates a meeting with the Devil, who claims to be the band's only hope of success. Unwilling to sign away his soul, MacDubh decides instead to put the Devil out of business. A fantastic idea, but not exactly a practical one. For starters, it requires a trip to Hell. Catch-22? More like Catch-666. An immersive journey loaded with hope, humour and the heaviest metal.
