Product info

<b>Steven Hyden explores nineteen music rivalries and what they say about life in this "highly entertaining" book (<i>Rolling Stone</i>) perfect for every passionate music fan. </b> <p/> Beatles vs. Stones. Biggie vs. Tupac. Kanye vs. Taylor. Who do you choose? And what does that say about you? Actually -- what do these endlessly argued-about pop music rivalries say about us? <p/> Music opinions bring out passionate debate in people, and Steven Hyden knows that firsthand. Each chapter in <i>Your Favorite Band Is Killing Me</i> focuses on a pop music rivalry, from the classic to the very recent, and draws connections to the larger forces surrounding the pairing. <p/> Through Jimi Hendrix vs. Eric Clapton, Hyden explores burning out and fading away, while his take on Miley vs. Sinead gives readers a glimpse into the perennial battle between old and young. Funny and accessible, Hyden's writing combines cultural criticism, personal anecdotes, and music history -- and just may prompt you to give your least favorite band another chance.
