"Lovingly written and gorgeously produced... the first book published in the United States to survey the delirious landscape of Japanese rock... This is a work of visual art, about some very visual artists." SFGate.com"Stunningly elegant...witty...the first of its kind; an exciting first step..." CentigradeJ"Its as if jrock, ink. itself were the work of that rare blend of talents that makes for a great band. Yun is front woman, with all the sass one would expect from a music critic for Baltimores alternative weekly City Paper. Designer Yelena Zhavoronkovas brilliantly creative use of alternating margins and sparse, colored text not only gives the book a unique tone, it also makes nearly pagelong paragraphs surprisingly easy to follow. Its all rounded out by artist Yana Moskaluks fullpage illustrations for each of the 40 bands summarized. This book is a must not only for the serious rocker or DJ. Its also invaluable for students of modern Japanese culture and music criticism alike." The Asian ReporterAbout the AuthorJosephine Yun is a freelance music and arts writer whose work has appeared in Baltimore City Paper, Johns Hopkins Magazine, and SIGNAL to NOISE. She has worked in a cafe, a public arts high school, an airport, a Japanese restaurant, a symphony hall, and as a case clerk, piano accompanist, and string teacher. In 2006, she was interviewed by BBC/PRI's "The World" for a segment featuring Japanese rock and jrock, ink.
