DESTROYING YOURSELF IS TOO ACCESSIBLE /
MASCULINE DRUGS
by Zach Hill and Holy Smokes

Zach Hill (pummeling-secret-robot drummer for Sacramento noise-rock
heroes Hella, Nervous Cop, Team Sleep, etc.) steps out on his
own with Zach Hill & Holy Smokes and delivers an album &
book combination for the Next-Next Millennium. Teaming up with
a variety of friends and cohorts (including Carson McWhitter
from The Advantage and Rob Crow from Pinback), Hill and his
band present MASCULINE DRUGS, a hailstorm of a full-length album
with thunder claps and lightning snaps that ups the ante from
Zach’s past skill flaunting and certainly pushes the young
mindblower to the front of the noise-maker pack. Includes an
equally confounding perfect-bound storybook written and illustrated
by Hill titled DESTROYING YOURSELF IS TOO ACCESSIBLE.

STAND UP, ERNIE BAXTER: YOU'RE DEAD
A novel by Adam Voith (with
comic illustrations by Mike Lowery)

"This modest, streamlined story
illustrates why TNI ought to be considered one of the more vital
independent presses in the country... A great little book from
one of the more interesting writers out there." --Sponic
{ more info }
The body of Ernie Baxter was just buried in the frozen earth
of an Indiana winter, but Ernie's story is far from over. From
beyond the pale, this newcomer to the heavenly scene observes
the folks left down below - notably, his mother and onetime
girlfriend, Kyra - grieving his unexpected death. Kyra's husband
Dain, a phony redneck with a trust-fund and a snowplow, wonders
what the fuss is about. This unique novel mixes crisply written
prose with the deft comic illustrations of underground artist
Mike Lowery (four full chapters done as comics!), delivering
a witty and transcendental story of the legacy one man hoped
to leave behind, and the twisted myth that actually remains.
All orders get a free Baxter bookmark! Want the book signed

"BASEBALL IS JUST BASEBALL"
The Understated Ichiro
An unauthorized collection compiled by David Shields

David Shieldss sense of postmodern
irony is so advanced that I cant be sure whether hes
serious."
--Robert Lipyste, The New York Times
"An ethereal joy unto itself." --Flak
{ reviews & excerpts
}
Seattle's
favorite right-fielder and miracle-maker, Ichiro Suzuki, in
his own words! "Nearly every day [Ichiro is] quoted in
the paper saying something wonderfully unhyperbolic, sane, funny,
intelligent, modest, anti-hype," Shields says. "I'm
gathering these quotes into a little wisdom-book." This
collection was compiled during Ichiro's rookie year, the Seattle
Mariner's record-breaking 2001 season.

BRIDGES WITH SPIRIT
A collection by Adam Voith

"I
hate when book critics use the word 'crackling.' What is 'crackling,'
anyway? I'm not sure, but 'Bridges With Spirit' just might be
'crackling,' in a punk rock ennui way." --Rocket
Fuel
{ reviews & excerpt }
Voith's
first book opens in Pennsylvania at a Beatles concert in 1960-something
and ends with a cross-country trip to the optimism of the second
gold rush in California. A collection of tiny rock shows and
rare records, best friend's funerals, skipped classes, girlfriends
dumping their boys, and imaginary superhero friends.
