If you are a fan of music (Hello you are browsing newreleasetuesday.com so you are!!) you need to pick up this book by Matthew Paul Turner. I rarely re-read books and I have read this one several times. An insider look at the industry that feeds us our tunes, this coming of age story has a little something for all of us to relate to. Whether you were raised in an ultra-conservative family covering your ears from syncopated rhythms, or were raised on some good ol' rock n' roll, you will get a good laugh, as well as some weighty thought to chew on with this little gem. Highly recommended.

I'll be honest, I'm a fringe punk fan at best, and rarely do I lay my cold hard cash down for a band with a female singer (there are exceptions, I do like Fireflight) and stupid me I just wrote off this band. That is until I was listening to XM Satellite radio on my DirectTV one Saturday and "You Know We're All So Fond of Dying" shot out of my speakers and lodged itself in my mind, never to leave until I had marched to my nearest store and purchased the entire cd. I knew it had staying power when my wife decread that I was no longer aloud to sing either "Fond of Dying" or "Homeade Valentine" in our apartment (for at least a week or two or she would go insane.
Not one for vague lyrics, I will admit I have some trouble sifting through the poetry that is Children 18:3 lyrics, but there is no denying that they are thought-provoking, well done, and challenging.
As far as the music goes I just can't decide whether to describe it as raw...or polished. Heavy...or melodic. And I do believe it is the refusal to be pigeon-holed that sets Children 18:3 apart from the pack. Kudos!
