All memories lived. All stories true.

“Words From The Third Side: Essays on Sex, Satan & Success” is an inside
look into the life and philosophy of Church of Satan Warlock Joel
Gausten. From partying at the Playboy Mansion and dining with infamous
gamblers to dodging gang warfare in Los Angeles and exploring the
darkest elements of human sexuality, Warlock Gausten invites the reader
into his private world and reveals some of the many surreal and
memorable experiences that have defined his Satanic life.

Featuring cover art and a foreword by Avant-garde Artist and Church of Satan Witch Shannon Gardner.

Prong: The Early Years

Formed in 1986, Prong rose from the New York City underground “noise” scene to become one of the most accomplished and influential Metal acts of the 1990s. Focusing on the first five years of the band’s career, Prong: The Early Years offers a rare inside look into how the band went from a thrashy DIY trio playing shows at CBGB to becoming one of the most adventurous acts in major label history. Featuring never-before-seen photos from the band’s personal archives, Prong: The Early Years also includes exclusive, full-length interviews with PRONG founder Tommy Victor and former band members Mike Kirkland, Ted Parsons (Godflesh/Jesu) and Troy Gregory (Killing Joke/SWANS). Two years in the making, Prong: The Early Years gives the real deal on the group’s primitive origins – battle scars and all – straight from the band members themselves.

This book recently appeared in SCREAM magazine!
