5.0 out of 5 stars Blood n' Guts & Rock n' Roll, October 14, 1998
This review is from: SHOCK ROCK (Paperback)
As a connoisseur of horror in general and horror fiction anthologies in specific, I have to say that this collection is one of the finest available. The intro by the father of shock rock himself, Alice Cooper, gets the book off to a roaring start. The stories that follow do not disappoint, ( a hallmark of editor Jeff Gelb's other anthology work), and makes this a must have for anyone who enjoys rock n' roll, and horror. Mr. Gelb, a second volume please?

4.0 out of 5 stars There is Always an Empty Seat on the Whammy Bar Express to the Downstairs Eternal..., September 29, 2005
This review is from: SHOCK ROCK (Paperback)
"Shock Rock" defied expectations as a surprisingly above-average collection. Nonetheless, several of these tales belong in the accursed hellhole of the bargain bin: "Voodoo Child" by Graham Masterson is uneventful; "You Know they Got a Hell of a Band" by Stephen King is deadly dull; the colloboration between Billy Mummy and Peter David, "The Black '59", is unimaginative. The largest disappointment is John Byrne's "Hide in Plain Sight", an amateurish sex romp with an obvious conclusion that reads like it was written by a 14-year-old boy with a hard-on. JOHN BYRNE!! THE GUY WHO DREW THE FANTASTIC FOUR--SUPERMAN--X MEN!! WHAT THE HECKFIRE, BYRNIE!?! The last two tales in the collection, "Flaming Telepaths" and "Addicted to Love", are two great stories that bring down the curtain. "Bunky" is a caffeinated sugar-high that takes a couple reads to comprehend, but it is a worthy contribution. METALLICA DIED WITH CLIFF!!!

This is an excellent book combining the best of rock and horror fiction. See my review of Shock Rock 2, a continuation of this fine anthology.
