These three visionaries changed the way millions of readers thought, dreamed, and experienced reality—but how did their own writings reflect, as well as shape, the seismic cultural shifts taking place in America during one of its most surreal eras?\r\n\r\nIn <b>High Weirdness</b>, Erik Davis—America’s leading scholar of the strange—examines the writings of these vital, iconoclastic thinkers, as well as their own extraordinary, life-changing experiences. Along the way, Davis maps the uncanny lattice of culture and consciousness that characterized America’s West Coast at a time of radical technological, political, and social change. What results is a new theory of the weird that illuminates the seventies, while providing for a renewed engagement with reality during our own highly weird times.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','High Weirdness','Drugs, Esoterica, and Visionary Experience in the Seventies\r\nby Erik Davis\r\nPB, 560pp','inherit','closed','closed','','6239-revision-v1','','','2019-11-11 11:32:39','2019-11-11 11:32:39','',6239,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6239-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6451,2,'2019-12-19 17:27:41','2019-12-19 17:27:41','<a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/bass-mids-tops/attachment/bmt-cover-for-web-19-12-19/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6364\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6477 \" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/BMT-Cover-for-web-19.12.19-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"348\" height=\"466\" /></a><strong>An Oral History of Sound System Culture</strong>\n\n<strong>by Joe Muggs &amp; Brian David Stevens</strong>\n<strong>500pp (approx) heavily illustrated in b/w</strong>\n<strong>165mm x 221mm</strong>\n<strong>£25.00</strong>\n\nShipping 19th December 2019\n\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/bass-mids-tops/?fbclid=IwAR03otSVSBsR3OmhCykHbzLtc_WAeZg4ZToHvjckWK3zutq4EssABGHOspo\">PRE-ORDER HERE</a></span>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 19\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n\n<em>These in-depth Q&amp;As glimmer with insight into the day-to-day workings of dance culture, and make clear the overlapping interrelationships between the various tasks of keeping that culture moving.</em>  <strong>The Wire</strong>\n\n</div>\n<em>An engrossing tale of sounds ricocheting around the world—and an instinctive allegiance to frequencies more felt than heard. </em><strong>Pitchfork, books of the year.</strong>\n<div class=\"column\">\n\nAn oral history of the UK\'s soundsystem culture, featuring interviews with Dubmaster Dennis Bovell, Skream, Youth, Norman Jay MBE, Adrian Sherwood, Mala, and others.\n\nIn the years following the arrival of the Windrush generation, the UK\'s soundsystem culture would become the most important influence on contemporary pop music since rock and roll.

Its influence reaches across the spectrum of alternative music, from psychedelia, prog, and punk, through industrial, electronica, and stoner rock. Hawkwind has been variously, if erroneously, positioned as the heir to both Pink Floyd and the Velvet Underground, and as Britain\'s answer to the Grateful Dead and Krautrock. It has defined a genre—space rock—while operating on a frequency that\'s uniquely its own.\r\n\r\nHawkwind offered a form of radical escapism and an alternative account of a strange new world for a generation of young people growing up on a planet that seemed to be teetering on the brink of destruction, under threat from economic meltdown, industrial unrest, and political polarisation. While other commentators confidently asserted that the countercultural experiment of the 1960s was over, Hawkwind took the underground to the provinces and beyond.\r\n\r\nIn <i>Days of the Underground</i>, Joe Banks repositions Hawkwind as one of the most innovative and culturally significant bands of the 1970s. It\'s not an easy task. As with many bands of this era, a lazy narrative has built up around Hawkwind that doesn\'t do justice to the breadth of its ambition and achievements. Banks gives the lie to the popular perception of Hawkwind as one long lysergic soap opera; with <i>Days of the Underground</i>, he shows us just how revolutionary Hawkwind were and their ongoing legacy\'s incendiary potential.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>SPECIAL EDITION DETAILS:</strong></em>\r\n\r\n– Hardback edition limited to 500 copies\r\n\r\n<em>– BONUS BOOK:  Sideways Through Time: An Oral History Of Hawkwind In The 1970s\r\n</em>A 200-page companion volume of interviews, including DikMik, Nik Turner, Michael Moorcock, Stacia Blake, Alan Powell, Paul Rudolph, Adrian Shaw, Paul Hayles, Harvey Bainbridge, Andrew Lauder, Doug Smith, Jeff Dexter, Jonathan Smeeton, Renée Berg, Michael Butterworth, and Pamela Townley\r\n\r\n– A print of Michael Moorcock &amp; Jim Cawthorn’s ‘Sonic Assassins’ comic strip from <em>Frendz</em>\r\n\r\n– Postcards featuring unseen photographs from the ‘Space Ritual’ shoot by Laurie Lewis\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/\">PRE-ORDER HERE</a>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>','Hawkwind: Days of the Underground','Radical Escapism in the Age Of Paranoia\r\n£22 / £50 (special edition with print, cards and bonus book)','inherit','closed','closed','','6377-revision-v1','','','2019-12-03 16:37:10','2019-12-03 16:37:10','',6377,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6377-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6456,6,'2019-12-10 14:23:18','2019-12-10 14:23:18','<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/murderous-passions-new-edition/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6415\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6415\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/MPv2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"385\" height=\"456\" /></a><strong><em>MURDEROUS PASSIONS: The Delirious Cinema of Jesús Franco</em>\n</strong>New Edition\n\n<strong>STEPHEN THROWER</strong>\n<strong>with Julian Grainger\n</strong>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n\n<strong>HB, 270 x 240 mm </strong>\n\n<strong>512pp,  599 images, 326 in colour</strong>\n\n<strong>£45</strong>\n\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/Murderous-Passions-Delirious-Strange-Attractor/dp/190722291X/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=murderous+passions&amp;qid=1575987738&amp;sr=8-1\">AVAILABLE HERE</a></span>\n\n<strong>\n</strong><del><strong>/ £55 + signed insert (100 only)\n/ £60 + 7\" &amp; insert (40 only)</strong></del>\n\n<del>40 copies available<span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"> with red-vinyl 7\" single containing three tracks from </span><em style=\"caret-color: #000000;\">La Comtesse Perverse </em><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\">and</span><em style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"> Le Journal Intime dune Nymphomane</em><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\">,  all by Roger Davy, plus an inserted print of Ania Goszczy</span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ń</span><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\">ska\'s artwork featured on the original special edition of </span><i style=\"caret-color: #000000;\">Murderous Passions, </i><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"><i>signed</i></span><i style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"> by Stephen </i><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"><i>Thrower.</i></span><i style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"> </i></del>\n\n<strong>Available now from all good booksellers</strong>\n\nJesús Franco was a fascinating, iconic gure in world cinema.

We each know the power of the first cut and in Our Fatal Magic the cut becomes a sybil, answering each riddle by posing another.\r\nMesmeric and enlightening.’\r\n\r\n- Linder Sterling\r\n\r\n‘Bonding the mythological and the poetic with the piercingly contemporary that is, inevitably, a painfully acute register of the lived traumas of gender, racialization, age and diverse embodiment in a society defined by hierarchy and exclusion, Our Fatal Magic takes its unique place in a genealogy of brilliant fictional worlds created by women as testimonies and challenges to the world they have to endure. Tai Shani has reached deep into the dark powers of gothic literature and science fiction to trace an imaginative, polyvocal and visually sumptuous journey that often defies reason. It is exhilarating to encounter a work of such originality, ambition, depth, humour, eroticism, wit and pathos.’\r\n\r\n- Griselda Pollock','Our Fatal Magic','Feminist science fiction that anticipates a post-patriarchal future.','inherit','closed','closed','','6370-revision-v1','','','2019-12-10 14:29:44','2019-12-10 14:29:44','',6370,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6370-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6459,6,'2019-12-10 14:30:52','2019-12-10 14:30:52','<a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/bass-mids-tops/attachment/bmt-cover-03-10-19-v3/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6364\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6429 \" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/BMT-Cover-03.10.19-v3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"325\" height=\"435\" /></a><strong>An Oral History of Sound System Culture</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>by Joe Muggs &amp; Brian David Stevens</strong>\r\n<strong>500pp (approx) heavily illustrated in b/w</strong>\r\n<strong>151mm x 229mm</strong>\r\n<strong>£25.00</strong>\r\n\r\nShipping 19th December 2019\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/bass-mids-tops/?fbclid=IwAR03otSVSBsR3OmhCykHbzLtc_WAeZg4ZToHvjckWK3zutq4EssABGHOspo\">PRE-ORDER HERE</a>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 19\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\n<em>These in-depth Q&amp;As glimmer with insight into the day-to-day workings of dance culture, and make clear the overlapping interrelationships between the various tasks of keeping that culture moving.</em>  <strong>The Wire</strong>\r\n\r\nAn oral history of the UK\'s soundsystem culture, featuring interviews with Dubmaster Dennis Bovell, Skream, Youth, Norman Jay MBE, Adrian Sherwood, Mala, and others.\r\n\r\nIn the years following the arrival of the Windrush generation, the UK\'s soundsystem culture would become the most important influence on contemporary pop music since rock and roll.

Cherish our flame. Our dawn shall come...</i>\r\n\r\nIn 1974, the BBC broadcast the film <i>Penda’s Fen</i>, leaving audiences mystified and spellbound. “Make no mistake. We had a major work of television last night,” <i>The Times</i> declared the next morning. Written by the playwright and classicist David Rudkin, the film follows Stephen, an 18-year-old boy, whose identity, sexuality, and suffocating nationalism unravel through a series of strange visions. After its original broadcast, <i>Penda’s Fen</i> vanished into mythic status, with only a single rebroadcast in 1990 sustaining its cult following. <i>Penda’s Fen</i> has now become totemic for those interested in Britain’s deep history, folklore, and landscape.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> </span>\r\n\r\n<i>Of Mud &amp; Flame</i> includes insightful essays by scholars across a range of disciplines including television history, literature, theatre, and medieval studies. It also contains a wealth of creative contributions from contemporary writers and poets inspired by this unique cornerstone of Britain’s uncanny archive, as well as recollections from actors Spencer Banks and Christopher Douglas, and reflections from Rudkin himself. Together with this breadth of commentary, <i>Of Mud &amp; Flame</i> also includes the full revised screenplay of <i>Penda’s Fen</i>, its first time in print since 1975.\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 19\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\n<strong>CONTRIBUTORS </strong>\r\n\r\nSpencer Banks, Joseph Brooker, Gary Budden, Daniel O’Donnell-Smith, Christopher Douglas, Daniel Eltringham, Gareth Evans, William Fowler, John Harle, Timothy J.

Taking in the first UK headline gig by The Strokes in a room above a pub, and the final arena tour by David Bowie.\r\n\r\nAlong the way Duff experiences pub-crawls with Mark E. Smith of The Fall, convinces Paul Weller to undertake his first acting role and attempts to interview Genesis P.

Dick, Terence McKenna, and Robert Anton Wilson, <b>High Weirdness</b> charts the emergence of a new psychedelic worldview out of the American counterculture of the seventies. These three visionaries changed the way millions of readers thought, dreamed, and experienced reality—but how did their own writings reflect, as well as shape, the seismic cultural shifts taking place in America during one of its most surreal eras?\r\n\r\nIn <b>High Weirdness</b>, Erik Davis—America’s leading scholar of the strange—examines the writings of these vital, iconoclastic thinkers, as well as their own extraordinary, life-changing experiences. Along the way, Davis maps the uncanny lattice of culture and consciousness that characterized America’s West Coast at a time of radical technological, political, and social change. What results is a new theory of the weird that illuminates the seventies, while providing for a renewed engagement with reality during our own highly weird times.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','High Weirdness','Drugs, Esoterica, and Visionary Experience in the Seventies\r\nby Erik Davis\r\nPB, 560pp','inherit','closed','closed','','6239-revision-v1','','','2019-12-10 15:16:24','2019-12-10 15:16:24','',6239,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6239-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6465,2,'2019-12-12 09:22:58','2019-12-12 09:22:58','<strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/londons-lost-rivers-volume/?fbclid=IwAR3wRej4B7Lsfjt6b85D0VXfWNOQzpnqrM3cQ2HikWOHfggBZnvTwkkzatg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6434\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6434\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/LLR2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"308\" height=\"429\" /></a></strong><strong>By Tom Bolton</strong>\r\n<strong>Photography by SF Said</strong>\r\n<strong>Foreword by Tom Holland\r\n</strong><strong>PB, 304pp, illustrated,  £11.99.\r\n</strong><strong>ISBN 978 1907222856</strong>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/londons-lost-rivers-volume/?fbclid=IwAR3wRej4B7Lsfjt6b85D0VXfWNOQzpnqrM3cQ2HikWOHfggBZnvTwkkzatg\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">ORDER HERE</span></a>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\n<em>\"Urban topography and history come vividly alive.

This second volume of <em>London\'s Lost Rivers</em> explores eleven more rivers that have been buried, hidden or mislaid across the city — watercourses that have been culverted, placed in tunnels, or diverted into the sewer system. But while they may be hidden from view, clues remain, and this book will show you how to find them.\r\n\r\nThese walks trace the routes of buried rivers, tracking the impression they have left on the landscape and cityscape of London. Walks include the little-known Cock and Pye Ditch that shaped Covent Garden, Tottenham\'s Moselle River (not to be confused with the French version), the East End\'s unsavoury-sounding Black Ditch, and the mysterious channels of the Stamford Brook which hold West London in a tangled embrace.\r\n\r\nAccompanied by SF Said\'s haunting and evocative Polaroid photographs, this guidebook tracks routes that are recorded on no map, stripping back the layers to reveal London\'s veins and arteries.\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n<strong>About the Author\r\n</strong>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\nTom Bolton is a researcher, walker and photographer who has lived and worked in London since 1996.

Fred Vermorel’s forensic, troubling (and trouble-making) investigation digs deep into Jean Townsend’s life and times, and her transgressive bohemian milieu. It disentangles the lies and bluffs that have obscured this puzzling case for over half a century and offers a compelling solution to her murder and the official secrecy surrounding it.\r\n\r\nMore than just a true crime story, Vermorel’s account deploys Townsend’s death as a wild card methodology for probing the 1950s: a cesspit of vice and violence, from coprophiles to bombsite gangs and flick knives in cinemas. Densely illustrated with archival material, Dead Fashion Girl is a heavily researched, darkly curious exposé of London’s 1950s society that touches on celebrity, royalty, the post-war establishment, and ultimately, tragedy.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"><b>About the Author\r\n</b></span></span>\r\n\r\nFred Vermorel is a pioneer of the in-depth study of celebrity and fan cultures, best known for his controversial “antibiographies” of pop icons including the Sex Pistols, Kate Bush, Vivienne Westwood, and Kate Moss.\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>','Dead Fashion Girl','A Situationist Detective Story ','inherit','closed','closed','','6354-revision-v1','','','2019-12-12 10:44:57','2019-12-12 10:44:57','',6354,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6354-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6467,2,'2019-12-17 09:19:18','2019-12-17 09:19:18','<strong><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/foreground-music/attachment/foregroundcover2/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6406\"><img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-6406\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/foregroundcover2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"390\" height=\"567\" /></a>FOREGROUND MUSIC\r\n</strong><strong>A LIFE IN FIFTEEN GIGS\r\n</strong><strong>Graham Duff</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>PB 368pp </strong>\r\n<strong>210mm x 148mm</strong>\r\n<strong>30 illustrations</strong>\r\n<strong>£15.99</strong>\r\n\r\nIntroduction by Mark Gatiss\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/foreground-music-0/\">ORDER HERE</a></span>\r\n\r\n<strong>Also available in <a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/Foreground-Music-Strange-Attractor-Press/dp/1907222820/ref=sr_1_1?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ebook formats</a> and as an <a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/Foreground-Music-Strange-Attractor-Press/dp/1907222820/ref=sr_1_1?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Audible audiobook</a>.</strong>\r\n\r\n“<i>Foreground Music</i> is an absolute gem.

These three visionaries changed the way millions of readers thought, dreamed, and experienced reality—but how did their own writings reflect, as well as shape, the seismic cultural shifts taking place in America during one of its most surreal eras?\r\n\r\nIn <b>High Weirdness</b>, Erik Davis—America’s leading scholar of the strange—examines the writings of these vital, iconoclastic thinkers, as well as their own extraordinary, life-changing experiences. Along the way, Davis maps the uncanny lattice of culture and consciousness that characterized America’s West Coast at a time of radical technological, political, and social change. What results is a new theory of the weird that illuminates the seventies, while providing for a renewed engagement with reality during our own highly weird times.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','High Weirdness','Drugs, Esoterica, and Visionary Experience in the Seventies\r\nby Erik Davis\r\nPB, 560pp','inherit','closed','closed','','6239-revision-v1','','','2019-12-17 09:28:34','2019-12-17 09:28:34','',6239,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6239-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6473,2,'2019-12-17 09:29:40','2019-12-17 09:29:40','<strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/divine-rascal/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6348\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6348\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Divine-Rascal.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"409\" height=\"582\" /></a></strong><strong>Divine Rascal: On the Trail of Michael Hollingshead, LSD\'s Cosmic Courier\r\n</strong>\r\n<strong>by Andy Roberts</strong>\r\n<strong>304pp fully illustrated b/w</strong> <strong>148 x 210 mm</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>PB &amp; HB</strong>\r\n<strong>ltd Hardback (200 copies)</strong>\r\n<strong>£16.99 / £25.00</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/divine-rascal/\">ORDER HERE</a></strong>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://read.amazon.co.uk/kp/embed?asin=B082LR166F&amp;preview=newtab&amp;linkCode=kpe&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_z8j-DbTGVW8MC&amp;tag=stranattra-21\"><strong>Ebook also available</strong></a>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 19\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\nOf all the figures associated with the history of LSD there is none more enigmatic than Michael Hollingshead. Appearing as if from nowhere, he turned Timothy Leary on to LSD in 1962, and was influential in Leary’s years at Harvard,\r\nMillbrook and beyond.\r\n\r\nA Zelig-like character, Hollingshead became a key player in London’s early LSD scene, where he established the World Psychedelic Centre in swinging Chelsea. Following a spell in prison, where he dosed KGB spy George Blake, he continued to pursue adventures with the Brotherhood of Eternal Love, established a psychedelic commune on a remote Scottish island, created the first electronic I Ching installation, published an underground magazine, and spent time in Nepal, before dying a mysterious death in Bolivia in the 1980s. <em>Divine Rascal</em> tells his improbable story for the first time.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/divine-rascal/attachment/dr-hb/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6409\"><img class=\"wp-image-6409 aligncenter\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/DR-HB.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"347\" height=\"257\" /></a><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/divine-rascal/attachment/dr-boards/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6410\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6410\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/DR-boards.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"295\" height=\"253\" /></a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR</strong>\r\n\r\nAndy Roberts is widely regarded as an authority on contemporary folklore and psychedelic history.

Orridge of Throbbing Gristle whilst tripping on LSD.\r\n\r\n<em>Foreground Music </em>captures the power of life-changing gigs, whilst tracing the evolution of 40 years of musical movements and subcultures.

Its influence reaches across the spectrum of alternative music, from psychedelia, prog, and punk, through industrial, electronica, and stoner rock. Hawkwind has been variously, if erroneously, positioned as the heir to both Pink Floyd and the Velvet Underground, and as Britain\'s answer to the Grateful Dead and Krautrock. It has defined a genre—space rock—while operating on a frequency that\'s uniquely its own.\r\n\r\nHawkwind offered a form of radical escapism and an alternative account of a strange new world for a generation of young people growing up on a planet that seemed to be teetering on the brink of destruction, under threat from economic meltdown, industrial unrest, and political polarisation. While other commentators confidently asserted that the countercultural experiment of the 1960s was over, Hawkwind took the underground to the provinces and beyond.\r\n\r\nIn <i>Days of the Underground</i>, Joe Banks repositions Hawkwind as one of the most innovative and culturally significant bands of the 1970s. It\'s not an easy task. As with many bands of this era, a lazy narrative has built up around Hawkwind that doesn\'t do justice to the breadth of its ambition and achievements. Banks gives the lie to the popular perception of Hawkwind as one long lysergic soap opera; with <i>Days of the Underground</i>, he shows us just how revolutionary Hawkwind were and their ongoing legacy\'s incendiary potential.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>SPECIAL EDITION DETAILS:</strong></em>\r\n\r\n– Hardback edition limited to 500 copies\r\n\r\n<em>– BONUS BOOK:  Sideways Through Time: An Oral History Of Hawkwind In The 1970s\r\n</em>A 200-page companion volume of interviews, including DikMik, Nik Turner, Michael Moorcock, Stacia Blake, Alan Powell, Paul Rudolph, Adrian Shaw, Paul Hayles, Harvey Bainbridge, Andrew Lauder, Doug Smith, Jeff Dexter, Jonathan Smeeton, Renée Berg, Michael Butterworth, and Pamela Townley\r\n\r\n– A print of Michael Moorcock &amp; Jim Cawthorn’s ‘Sonic Assassins’ comic strip from <em>Frendz</em>\r\n\r\n– Postcards featuring unseen photographs from the ‘Space Ritual’ shoot by Laurie Lewis\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/\">PRE-ORDER HERE</a>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>','Hawkwind: Days of the Underground','Radical Escapism in the Age Of Paranoia\r\n£22 / £50 (special edition with print, cards and bonus book)','inherit','closed','closed','','6377-revision-v1','','','2020-01-16 17:59:39','2020-01-16 17:59:39','',6377,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6377-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6481,2,'2020-01-29 17:01:40','2020-01-29 17:01:40','<em><strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/inferno-82/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6482\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6482\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Inferno-cover-web.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"343\" height=\"496\" /></a>\r\nThe Trash Project: Volume One</strong></em>\r\n<strong>Ken Hollings</strong>\r\n<strong>400pp, Paperback</strong>\r\n<strong>34 b/w images (approx)</strong>\r\n<strong>ISBN: 9781907222795</strong>\r\n<strong>£15.99</strong>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/inferno-82/?fbclid=IwAR1omFz0BP2tM_jCSBKgevVZ0rHyWOtB0tDU5cFZ3qkrAti-Z0kfq-cnlSs\">Buy it now!</a>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\n<em>Accessible and joyous...

Why do we find ourselves so attracted to the cheap and vulgar, the discarded, the misshapen and the abject? What do we really mean when we say that something is “so bad it\'s good,” and what finally does it say about us? Part personal confession and part historical roadmap of tales from the underground and exploitation movie scene in America during the 1960s, Inferno takes the reader on a journey deep into the heart of the trash experience.\r\n\r\nWith Inferno, Hollings offers a complex and intricate timeline of connections, coincidences, and resonances that have mostly gone unnoticed. He traces the transmission of “the Purple Death,” a deadly and exotic virus first depicted in an old episode of a Flash Gordon movie serial, through the films of Jack Smith, Andy Warhol, and Kenneth Anger and into the output of such exploitation pioneers as Ray Dennis Steckler, Hershel Gordon Lewis, and Russ Meyer. Hollings also turns his idiosyncratic gaze upon key aspects of teenage culture during the 1960s, including hot rods, “Rat Fink,” surfers, bikers, and beach parties, uncovering a secretive and hidden universe of masks, fake identities, and secret desires. Even Dante would think twice about taking this trip into Hell.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Inferno','A Genealogy of 1960s Trash Culture','inherit','closed','closed','','6481-revision-v1','','','2020-03-02 11:17:07','2020-03-02 11:17:07','',6481,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6481-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6491,2,'2020-03-02 11:34:06','2020-03-02 11:34:06','&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<em><strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/there-is-a-graveyard-that-dwells/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6489\"><img class=\"wp-image-6489 alignright\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Graveryard-New-Cover-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"275\" height=\"402\" /></a><b>There Is A Graveyard That Dwells In Man\r\nEdited by David Tibet\r\n</b></strong></em><strong><b>\r\nSigned HB £40 / Trade PB £17.99\r\n440pp (approx)\r\n148mm x 210mm\r\nISBN: 9781907222610</b></strong><em><strong>\r\n</strong></em>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/there-is-a-graveyard-that-dwells/\">Buy it now!</a>\r\n\r\n<em>Available in two editions:</em>\r\n\r\n-- A signed clothbound hardback special edition of There Is A Graveyard<em>… will be available to purchase for £40.00 directly from Strange Attractor Press.

Its labyrinthine explorations creatively mirror the strange and often baffling phenomena they describe. </em><a href=\"http://4columns.org/dayal-geeta/high-static-dead-lines\">Geeta Dayal</a>\r\n\r\nTrees rigged up to the wireless radio heavens. A fax machine used to decode the language of hurricanes. A broadcast ghost that hijacked a television station to terrorize a city. A failed computer factory in the desert with a slap-back echo resounding into ruin.\r\n\r\nIn <i>High Static, Dead Lines</i>, media historian and artist Kristen Gallerneaux weaves a literary mix tape that explores the entwined boundaries between sound, material culture, landscape, and esoteric belief. Essays and fictocritical interludes are arranged to evoke a network of ley lines for the “sonic spectre” to travel through—a hypothetical presence that manifests itself as an invisible layer of noise alongside the conventional histories of technological artifacts.\r\n\r\nThe objects and stories within span from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day, touching upon military, communications, and cultural history. A connective thread is the recurring presence of sound—audible, self-generative, and remembered—charting the contentious sonic histories of paranormal culture.\r\n\r\n<b>About the Author</b>\r\n\r\nKristen Gallerneaux is a writer, folklorist, and artist. She has published on topics as diverse as mathematics in midcentury design, the visual history of telepathy research, the world\'s first mouse pad, and car audio bass battles in Miami. She is also Curator of Communications and Information Technology at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan, where she continues to build upon one of the largest historic technology collections in North America.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','High Static, Dead Lines','Sonic Spectres and the Object Hereafter\r\nby Kristen Gallerneaux','inherit','closed','closed','','6111-revision-v1','','','2020-04-29 09:26:23','2020-04-29 09:26:23','',6111,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6111-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6529,2,'2020-04-29 11:43:48','2020-04-29 11:43:48','<h2 class=\"book__subtitle\"><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6385\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6385\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/DOTU2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"368\" height=\"511\" /></a><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/attachment/dotu/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6379\">\r\n</a>Radical Escapism in the Age Of Paranoia\r\nJoe Banks</h2>\r\n<p class=\"book__subtitle\">£22 PB /£50 HB Special Edition\r\n216mm x 156mm\r\n528 pp. approx\r\nISBN: 9781907222849528\r\nApprox 150 BW &amp; Colour images</p>\r\nWraparound cover by Hawkwind cover artist John Coulthart.\r\n\r\n<strong>Coming late June 2020</strong>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/\">PRE-ORDER HERE</a>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 19\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\nFifty years on the English rock band Hawkwind continues to inspire devotion from fans around the world.

Baker’s supernatural novella <em>A College Mystery</em> (1918) with covers designed by David Tibet.\r\n\r\n-- An unlimited paperback edition of the collection, replete with french flaps, will also be available to purchase through Strange Attractor Press, MIT Press, and all good bookshops for the price of £17.99.\r\n\r\nAn arcane compendium of strange fiction and hallucinatory tales, <em>There Is a Graveyard That Dwells in Man</em> collects chilling stories by renowned innovators of the weird and by many little-known and underrepresented or forgotten scribes of the macabre.\r\n\r\nSelected by artist, writer, and musician David Tibet, this widely-sourced collection of supernatural rarities continues the bibliographic exhumation initiated with <em>The Moons At Your Door</em> (Strange Attractor Press, 2016), offering lyrical portals into worlds of strange beauty, elegant unease, and creeping decadence.\r\n\r\nAuthors include HR Wakefield, HD Everett, LA Lewis, AC Benson, Thomas Ligotti, Lady Dilke, Arthur Machen, Colette De Curzon, Nugent Barker, Edna W. Underwood, EF Benson, Oliver Onions, AM Burrage, John Gower, Algernon Blackwood, Amyas Northcote, LP Hartley, Edith Wharton, RH Benson, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Richard Middleton and Walter De La Mare.\r\n\r\nThe volume also includes a new introductory essay by David Tibet, incorporating original translations from the Akkadian. Comprehensive biographical and publication histories are provided by noted scholar of bibliographic arcana Mark Valentine. <em>There Is a Graveyard That Dwells in Man</em> offers an unnerving, serpentine tributary to the canon of supernatural literature.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','There Is A Graveyard That Dwells In Man','Edited by David Tibet\r\nSigned HB (500 copies) £40 / Trade PB £17.99\r\n440pp','inherit','closed','closed','','6494-revision-v1','','','2020-06-29 08:56:29','2020-06-29 08:56:29','',6494,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6494-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6554,2,'2020-07-10 10:27:18','2020-07-10 10:27:18','','HWWEB1','','inherit','closed','closed','','hwweb1','','','2020-07-10 10:27:18','2020-07-10 10:27:18','',6377,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/HWWEB1.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6555,2,'2020-07-10 10:27:27','2020-07-10 10:27:27','','HWWEB2','','inherit','closed','closed','','hwweb2','','','2020-07-10 10:27:27','2020-07-10 10:27:27','',6377,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/HWWEB2.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6556,2,'2020-07-10 10:27:38','2020-07-10 10:27:38','','HWWEB4','','inherit','closed','closed','','hwweb4','','','2020-07-10 10:27:38','2020-07-10 10:27:38','',6377,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/HWWEB4.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(6557,2,'2020-07-10 10:31:29','2020-07-10 10:31:29','<h2 class=\"book__subtitle\"><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6385\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6385\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/DOTU2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"368\" height=\"511\" /></a><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/attachment/dotu/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6379\">\r\n</a>Radical Escapism in the Age Of Paranoia\r\nJoe Banks</h2>\r\n<p class=\"book__subtitle\">£22 PB /£50 HB Special Edition\r\n216mm x 156mm\r\n512 pp. approx\r\nISBN: 9781907222849\r\nApprox 150 BW &amp; Colour images</p>\r\nWraparound cover by Hawkwind cover artist John Coulthart.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/hawkwind-days-of-the-underground/\">AVAILABLE NOW!</a>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 19\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\nHawkwind are like no other band. Their influence reaches across the spectrum of alternative musics—from psychedelia, prog and punk, through industrial, electronica and stoner rock—and they continue to inspire devotion from fans around the world. They’ve been positioned as heirs to both Pink Floyd and the Velvet Underground, and as Britain’s answer to the Grateful Dead and Krautrock.

The band’s image adorned psychedelic posters and its music was the theme for an alternative lifestyle.\r\n\r\nRose and partner Mike Heron believed in, and lived, a naive vision of utopia in Scotland, but they were also a band on tour, enjoying the thrills of that life. They were at the centre of Swinging London and at New York\'s Chelsea Hotel with Andy Warhol’s superstars. They shared stages with rock idols and played at Woodstock in 1969. Rose and fellow ISB member Licorice were hippie pin-ups, while Heron and Robin Williamson the seers and prophets of a new world.\r\n\r\nThrough a haze of incense and marijuana, they played out their Arcadian dreams on stages brilliant with the colours of clothes, light-shows, rugs, cushions, and exotic instruments. But like most utopias, the ISB’s imploded, leading from psychedelic dream-world to the harsh alternate realities of Scientology and celebrity.\r\n\r\nNever seeing herself as a professional musician, Rose retained an outsider’s detachment even while living the life of a hippie chick. Her dreamy, yet firmly-grounded memoir gives voice to those flower-wreathed girls whose photographs have become symbols of the psychedelic sixties.\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\n<em>In lucid, lovely, and lilting prose, Rose Simpson brings to life her experiences as a member of one of the greatest psychedelic folk bands. With refreshing honesty and an attuned sensibility to the ethos of the period and its indispensable soundtrack, Rose’s memoir offers a sharp personal portrait of the music scene at the twilight of the 60s and dawn of the 70s. This memoir couldn’t be timelier. In the last ten years, a growing body of life writing has shone a much-needed light on women’s contributions to the counterculture, and particularly within the supposedly male domain of the music industry. This book can be placed alongside recent classics of musical memoir from artists as wide-ranging as Cosey Fanni Tutti, Shirley Collins, Patti Smith, Kim Gordon and Viv Albertine. Much more than muse, than odalisque, than handmaiden: Rose Simpson’s book reveals to us what it means to live together and to co-create: to push at the boundaries of radical possibility, both in art and in life.\r\n</em><strong>Dr Sophia Satchell-Baeza</strong>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\n<em>Rose Simpson’s memoir is warm-hearted yet clear-sighted, at once dazzled and wry. This is a legendary, magical time told from a new perspective, by a young woman who was both witness and participant in the very male late Sixties music scene. </em><em>Perceptive and acute in its reflections... it\'s a moving story about encountering something astounding and transformative early in one’s life, and in the end needing to leave it for sanity’s sake.

In this, the first in-depth biographical study of Colquhoun and her work, Amy Hale examines the magical and cultural confluences that shaped her imaginative life and artistic vision.\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n<div class=\"column\">\r\n\r\nRejecting the hectic social expectations and magical orthodoxies of London\'s art and occult scenes, Colquhoun retreated to Cornwall, where, at the price of relative cultural obscurity, she pursued a life of profoundly dedicated spiritual and artistic enquiry. As a result, her visual and written works have only recently begun to receive the recognition they deserve as daring experiments in magical art, autobiography and esoteric feminism.\r\n\r\nAs the influential role of occult ideas in the history of art becomes ever clearer, Colquhoun\'s work is long overdue a fresh consideration. \'Genius of the Fern Loved Gully\' balances engaging biography with historical erudition and critical insight into her art and writing.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\r\n<div class=\"section\">\r\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\r\n\r\n<b>ABOUT THE AUTHOR</b>\r\n\r\nDr Amy Hale is a Folklorist and Anthropologist specialising in modern Cornwall and contemporary esoteric history and culture.  She has published widely on topics such as modern Druidry, Cornish ethnonationalism,\r\nArthurian lore, colour theory, occult aesthetics, and extremist politics in modern Paganism.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> </span>\r\n\r\nShe resides in Atlanta with her family, five cats, and a 250-year-old oak tree.\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/ithell-colquhoun/\">Order here</a>','Muse, Odalisque, Handmaiden','','inherit','closed','closed','','6580-revision-v1','','','2020-10-06 11:51:35','2020-10-06 11:51:35','',6580,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6580-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6587,2,'2020-10-06 12:00:57','2020-10-06 12:00:57','<em><strong><b><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/ithell-colquhoun/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6559\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6559\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Ithellcoverweb.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"420\" /></a>The Eldritch Roots of Dungeons &amp; Dragons</b></strong></em>\r\n\r\n<em><strong><b>\r\n</b></strong></em><strong><b>Edited by Peter Bebergal</b></strong><strong><b>\r\nWith an after w</b></strong><strong><b>ord by Ann Vandermeer\r\n</b></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><b>Cover art by Arik Roper\r\nInterior illustrations and explorer\'s map by Alex Crispin\r\n</b></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><b>Special Edition Hardback\r\n148mm x 210mm\r\n360pp\r\nISBN: 9781907222740\r\n£30.00\r\n</b></strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<em>\"When the adventurers first arrive in the village, they can already hear whispers of the strange</em>\r\n<em>and terrible happenings in the ruins of the nearby hills...\"</em>\r\n\r\nDrawing upon Gary Gygax’s list of “inspirational reading” in the original 1979 <em>Dungeon Masters Guide</em>, <em>Appendix N</em> presents a selection of short fiction and resonant fragments that shaped the world’s most popular role playing game.\r\n\r\n<em>Appendix N</em> explores and contextualizes these ambitious lyrical excursions that set the adventurous tone and dank, dungeon-crawling atmospheres of fantasy roleplay as we know it today.\r\n\r\nIncluding tales by Poul Anderson, Frank Brunner, Ramsey Campbell, Lin Carter, Lord Dunsany, Robert E.

With refreshing honesty and an attuned sensibility to the ethos of the period and its indispensable soundtrack, Rose’s memoir offers a sharp personal portrait of the music scene at the twilight of the 60s and dawn of the 70s. This memoir couldn’t be timelier. In the last ten years, a growing body of life writing has shone a much-needed light on women’s contributions to the counterculture, and particularly within the supposedly male domain of the music industry. This book can be placed alongside recent classics of musical memoir from artists as wide-ranging as Cosey Fanni Tutti, Shirley Collins, Patti Smith, Kim Gordon and Viv Albertine. Much more than muse, than odalisque, than handmaiden: Rose Simpson’s book reveals to us what it means to live together and to co-create: to push at the boundaries of radical possibility, both in art and in life.\n</em><strong>Dr Sophia Satchell-Baeza</strong>\n\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n\n<em>Rose Simpson’s memoir is warm-hearted yet clear-sighted, at once dazzled and wry. This is a legendary, magical time told from a new perspective, by a young woman who was both witness and participant in the very male late Sixties music scene. </em><em>Perceptive and acute in its reflections... it\'s a moving story about encountering something astounding and transformative early in one’s life, and in the end needing to leave it for sanity’s sake. And how one lives honestly with all that early brightness.\n</em><strong>Andrew Greig</strong>\n\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n</div>\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/muse-odalisque-handmaiden/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Available now!</span></strong></a>','Muse, Odalisque, Handmaiden','\"What an extraordinary and intoxicating tale this is... a whole era seen from a new perspective: fascinating.\"\nMark Ellen','inherit','closed','closed','','6580-autosave-v1','','','2021-06-24 12:14:11','2021-06-24 12:14:11','',6580,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6580-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),
