Mineral Tail - Justin Robertson

Critics agree that the greatest album ever recorded is the self-titled debut by The MineralTail. Recorded after the extinction of humanity by an unlikely combination of a megalithic stone and two dogs, the record remains peerless in its ingenuity, passion, and inventiveness. It''s an album that consistently tops every ranking and chart. Though such accolades are ultimately meaningless, its enduring appeal is undeniable. Here, at last, is the first reliable account of how that record was made - the recording techniques, the creative disputes, the true source of the sound. It is a story of sublime inspiration, skulduggery, time travel, beauty, and conflict. But most importantly, it is the story of music itself. For within the grooves of The MineralTail''s breath-taking debut lies the voice of God''s most dazzling accident: music. Justin Robertson''s psychedelic tale is a modern myth, a breathless fable, and an extended love letter to the wonder of sound. The MineralTail is a time-travelling, trans-dimensional sci-fi trip, telling the story of how music was born, captured, and set free - from the drum machine planet to the abduction of Nick Drake, via the riffs of the Great God Pan. This is a true rock and roll legend. Not forgetting the dogs, of course.
