I have a confirmation that the book is available now in paperback.
You can order it now here.
Plan B magazine will be publishing an excerpt in their next issue, or the issue after. More info as I have it.

My copy arrived this morning! Its hardback btw. Looks good and the writer has nice things to say about this website.

Cool

I'll have to pick up a copy

My second attempt to order the book (from a different bookshop this time) has ended in failure! The website said "next day despatch", and now they've sent me an email saying it's on backorder and it could be a couple of weeks before they send it. This is bloody infuriating! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

So no U.S? Cuase I want this so bad.

Ah, Mr Chick... I see you're online...

What the fuck are your publishers playing at?

I tried amazon, and could not find it.

I'm not spending 50 dollars for a book, from the u.k.

i don't think so..cuz i'm in the U.S. and i ordered it from amazon the other day and it shipped yesterday....check it out

:confused:

The company that sent me an email earlier today saying that the book is on backorder has just sent me another saying it's been despatched to me.

Apologies, Mr Chick, maybe your publishers aren't to blame after all.

I just ordered mine.

ditto

anybody read it yet?
is there anything in it that a dedicated fan of 15 years isn't going to have read before?

Exactly.

seems more extensive than confusion is next for sure. there is also a lot more general historical stuff including thurston's obsession with hardcore (which apparently left a lot of his peers including lee and jim scluvanos mystified). also more general history about post punk and no wave as well as an odd tangent on the meat puppets. i'm about 90 or so pages in and the recording of Kill Yr Idols is being discussed along with Thurston's Killer fanzine.
a while since i read confusion is next, but as i said, it is definitely beefier although this is due in part to the tangental stuff

Larry David ? LOL

i read this and was pretty disappointed. up to ejstns it told me nothing i hadn't already learned from confusion is next, and all the stuff that came after that album was dealt with so quickly it frankly wasn't worth bothering with. it read like homework finished in a rush on the way to school.

so where can i buy this piece of literature? i looked on amazon and all they had was goodbye 20th century: a biography of sonic youth. i've never even heard of that book. so where can i get psychic confusion?

Why is there such an onslaught of SY books out? 3 in a few monthes is bizarro....
