A dated novel about the 1980s conflicts between the Religious Right, good rockers, and evil rockers, the latter being a metal band that is controlled by a demon for the specific purpose of letting it in. The closing scenes where that happens, a giant concert that turns into a blood bath, is memorable enough. Also mildly interesting for having the good rockers being Vietnam vets. ( ) Despite what many people have said, The Scream is not anti-Christian, nor is it excitedly pro-Christian either, which, as one myself, I find interesting. During a rock and roll aid event, two opposing views on the subject argue on whether or not rock is conducive to teenagers. To further this, a mysterious force found in the jungles of Vietnam has come to America to spread its malicious intents via the concert. I had a lot of fun reading this book, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone curious about Skipp and Spector. It's nothing amazing, but it's still a good read.

Rock 'n' Roll. Hell. Two great tastes that taste great together. Long before Elvis gyrated on the Sullivan Show or the Beatles toiled the smoky red-light bars of Hamburg, music has been sowing the seeds of liberation. Or damnation. With each new generation the edge of rebellion pushed farther. Rhythms quickened. Volume increased. Lyrics coarsened. The rules continued to be broken, until it seemed that there were no rules at all. And as waves of teens cranked it up and poured it on, parents built walls of accusation to explain their offspring's seeming corruption. Sex and drugs, demon worship and violence are the effects. Music is the cause. Or so the self-styled guardians of morality would have us believe. Meet The Scream. Just your average everyday mega-cult band. Their music is otherworldly. Their words are disturbing. Their message is unholy. Their fans are legion. And they're not kidding. They're killing. Themselves. Each other. Everyone. Their gospel screams from the lips of babes. Their backbeat has a body count. And their encore is just the warm-up act to madness beyond belief. It emerged from a war-torn jungle, where insanity was just another word for survival. It arrived in America with an insatiable lust for power and the means to fulfill it. In the amplified roar of arena applause there beats the heart of absolute darkness.
