Welcome to AbeBooks' brand new Weird Book Room - a celebration of everything that's bizarre, odd and downright weird in books. Crazy cookbooks, unusual animal books, how to books that will teach skills you never knew you needed, books about hilarious hobbies, and books about every strange aspect of life you could possibly imagine and a few things you can't imagine.
Weird Book of the Week - American Hair Metal by Steven Blush
Step back in time to an era where Jon Bon Jovi didn't have short hair and Jane Fonda wasn't the spandex spokesperson. A time when really big hair and skin tight pants dominated the music scene.
Steven Blush's American Hair Metal revists the heyday of Poison, Cinderella, Mötley Crüe making you cringe at the bad hair and even worse fashion of those we labelled as "cool".
Pull out the leather jacket, spandex pants, leopard prints and hairspray and celebrate the hair metal bands and their flamboyance, androgyny and animal magnetism with a copy of American Hair Metal.
