Raising Hell by Jon Wiederhorn5/30/2023 ![]() ![]() So, yes, there's plenty of groupie-related content to be found throughout Raising Hell, but it wouldn't be an honest rock book without Jon taking a warts and all approach. Jon's latest work is Raising Hell: Backstage Tales from the Lives of Metal Legends, a book that delivers the kind of debauchery one would expect from that kind of title.Īs someone who is approaching my 45th year on this planet, and is old enough to remember devouring rock rags (and I mean that with nothing but the utmost respect) like Hit Parader and RIP Magazine, Raising Hell reminds me of a time before so-called "cancel culture" existed and rock stars were allowed to be, well, rock stars. That's why I'm always excited to see when he has a new longform project out. I used to work with Jon during my time as a music editor at AOL Music some years ago and I'm a big fan of his style of writing. Jon Wiederhorn is a veteran rock scribe who has written such No Echo-approved books as My Riot: Agnostic Front, Grit, Guts & Glory (with Roger Miret) and I'm the Man: The Story of That Guy From Anthrax (with Scott Ian). ![]()
