The Iconoclast's Guide to Music

Music snobs are belligerent characters constantly trying to outdo fellow fans in a quest for musical superiority. This obsession with asserting musical superiority is an all-consuming passion for them, but it’s irritating to the rest of us. 

This book takes a flippant look at these music fans and explains what makes them the way they are. It covers 50 topics, such as the eternal obsession with heavy metal, the drug-musician relationship, the belief that vinyl is the only format worth listening to, and the opinion that obscure equals better. If you’ve ever wondered what your friend or family member sees in wasting hours reading about obscure bands, spending money on rare imported blues albums, or traveling to see terrible bands in the rain, these words will shed some light on the situation.
