Critics Review
The mythos, the madness, the mastery: a journey to the blackened vortex of the most eigmatic band in the cosmos. Franklin ventures further into the Wizard’s subcultural maelstrom than anyone has ever dared. Absolutely essential’ * Harry Sword, author of Monolithic Undertow *‘Dan Franklin has somehow written a book that reads exactly how Electric Wizard sound, with everything turned up to eleven and an omnivorous approach to the outlaw occulture that inspired them. A deafening classic’ * David Keenan, author of This Is Memorial Device *
