5.0 out of 5 stars Why aren't there more than five stars?, April 13, 2006
This review is from: Revolution on Canvas, Volume 1: Poetry from the Indie Music Scene (Paperback)
This book was truly amazing. Raw emotion, beautiful words, full of opinion and truth. I haven't read anything this good since Peter Wentz's "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side". I can't get over how good this book was. I definetely reccomend it if your a fan of any of the following bands: The Academy Is..., A Static Lullaby, Something Corporate, Circa Survive, and more. These artists are more than amazing, and they've put they're time into more than just singing. This book of poems is by far the greatest you may ever read. I can't wait for volume two, and you can bet that I'll review that too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Indie Rock, February 17, 2008
Just a tip. I flipped thorugh this in the book store asumming to see Indie-Rock, and i got Emo/Punk. If you are looking for something from Spoon, Okkervil River and the like, then do not pick this book up.

Where does the auther get the idea that NOFX and Static Lullaby are indie-rock? Hmm. =/
