Book: The Art Of Falling Apart by Mark Dawson

Dystopia are an industrial rock band on the verge of breaking America. However despite a rapturously received Las Vegas showcase gig they are falling apart. The singer wants to go solo despite his inability to write songs, the guitarist is depressed and the manager is looking to sell them all out.

Ex Hacienda DJ Mark Dawson's debut novel is at it's best detailing the excesses of the rock and roll lifestyle. Whilst the middle flags a little due to multiple narrators and a little too much back story The Art Of Falling Apart is a creditable rock and roll page turner.
