Description

Chronicling Nick Kent’s up close, personal, often-harrowing journeys with the Rolling Stones, Lester Bangs, David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, the Sex Pistols, and Chrissie Hynde, among scores of others, Apathy for the Demon is just a picaresque memoir that bears witness to the beautiful and the damned of the violent decade.As an university dropout hardly out-of his teens, Kent’s initial five interviews were with the MC5, Captain Beefheart, the Grateful Dead, the Stooges, and Lou Reed. But following the independence and exhilaration of these early years, his tale might arrived at mirror that of the decade alone, as he tucked into surplus and ever -deteriorating heroin use. Burn up, apathy for the Demon is just a powerful tale of motivation, success, and revival from the traditional wordsmith.
