In Terminated for Reasons of Taste, veteran rock critic Chuck Eddy
writes that "rock'n'roll history is written by the winners. Which
stinks, because the losers have always played a big role in keeping
rock interesting." Rock's losers share top billing with its winners
in this new collection of Eddy's writing. In pieces culled from
outlets as varied as the Village Voice, Creem magazine, the
streaming site Rhapsody, music message boards, and his high school
newspaper, Eddy covers everything from the Beastie Boys to 1920s
country music, Taylor Swift to German new wave, Bruce Springsteen
to occult metal. With an encyclopedic knowledge, unabashed
irreverence, and a captivating style, Eddy rips up popular music
histories and stitches them back together using his appreciation of
the lost, ignored, and maligned. In so doing, he shows how pop
music is bigger, and more multidimensional and compelling than most
people can imagine.
