When we hear the word “rocker,” we often imagine brutal men with painted faces, long hair, wearing leather jackets, shouting something loudly on stage, who love to drink, race on bikes, and have fun with girls. But among them there are plenty of exemplary family men and wonderful fathers.
Aleksei Yevdokimov—music journalist, author of the book “Doom Metal Lexicanum”—interviewed rockers who play in different metal styles to show how they live beyond the stage.
If you think that’s boring, you’re wrong: street-level parenting, naturopathy, kidnapping a child, children taking part in recording songs, trips together, life with two families, and a court case with a former spouse—these are only small pieces of the stories of the heroes of this book.
YOU WILL LEARN:
— what fathers are ready to do if they aren’t allowed to see their children;
— how musicians manage to combine creativity and parenthood;
— how the rockers’ children feel about their fathers’ careers and take part in them.
