Hello everyone.
I hope that some of my sonic brethren see this. Over the past year and a half I wrote a novel. It is now available on Amazon, in Kindle, Paperback, and Hardcover versions. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with Sonic Youth except for the fact that Sonic Youth is in me inexorably. IN CRED
A mystical experience or a death-time delusion. A journey to the farthest reaches of the cosmos, or a trip into the inner recesses of the mind. Cred's day is not going well. Collapsing at the record store and finding himself face to face with the god he accidentally created unhinged him somewhat. This new problem, however, completely terrifies him. With the help of some friends, a desperate ploy to save our universe is put in motion. If only Cred can figure out how. ♦ NOW AVAILABLE! IN CRED The debut novel by RXTT. IN CRED - Kindle Edition IN CRED - Paperback IN Cred - Hardcover Sonic Life to all!

I misspoke.
SONIC YOUTH is most definitely in my debut novel, IN CRED. "Speaking of infinities, there are certain vinyl records that never end. They contain locked grooves which keep the needle from lifting, endlessly repeating a small section of music or sound. The Beatles did this with some of their releases. Sonic Youth did so as well, with locked grooves keeping the skronk rotating indefinitely. There are other types of infinity, such as holographic or fractal infinities. There are certain albums with concurrent grooves. All vinyl records contain one long circular groove that details in three dimensions the audio sound wave recorded and cut into the record. Some albums have two concurrent grooves, which means that you never know into which groove the needle will drop. Again, Sonic Youth did this very same thing with a ten-inch vinyl release of their song “100%.” Each side contains two songs, but you can never tell which will play. It is a pain in the ass when all you want is to bliss out to Lee Ranaldo’s masterpiece, “Genetic.” These thoughts came to Cred. It is hard to say whether he comprehended it all instantly, or if he spent a long period of time ruminating. Time seems not to exist here in Mario’s presence. Cred felt no sense of urgency, and so it seemed, neither did Mario, who floated in front of him, eyes closed, gently snoring, with cartoon “Z’s” bubbling out of his mouth every time he exhaled." hahahahah!!!!

A UK-based publisher (that has released works by American authors, albeit sparingly) just asked to review a manuscript, so the tides may turn soon. Rob, I’m incredibly happy to see IN CRED out in the world. Expect an order soon.

I'm going to have to google that to see if you're winding me up or not. I mean it's exactly the sort of book he would write...

I remember him banging on about Girls Aloud's apparent genius all the time way back when, so I wouldn't be surprised to learn he's a Swifty

I've lost any contact details for Glice, so if you're in contact with him, could you pass on my congratulations? I've just ordered it but read a sample section on Amazon, and it looks great. Also, well done Rob! |
