    Straight from the brilliant Stephanie Ellis comes this collection of found poetry, culled from the lyrics of metal bands that cover a spectrum of intensity and darkness. Ellis shows her eye for details of the ghastly, compiling verses with fine slashes of heart and broad strokes of poignancy. The book is equally entertaining and inspiring. On a personal level, I found the language inspiring my writing, pushing me toward the poetic turns of phrase showcased herein.

    Fantastic work from a writer with superb taste and a wonderful imagination.

    This was such an original and well-executed poetry collection: found poetry inspired by metal lyrics. As someone who listens to a lot of music when I write and is often inspired by melody and lyrics, I was instantly intrigued. And I found that Ellis captured not only the lyrical aspect of metal songs, but all the melodies, the sometimes harsh/chaotic/violent sounds, the driving energy and urgency of metal music as well. Reading these poems will definitely make you want to go back and listen to the music. There are so many dark, evocative images throughout, as these poems deal with the darker aspects of human nature. One of my favorites was "Fever":

    "In the labyrinth of fever
    is the believer washing life
    from hardened skin.

    A mirror of the world,
    root of sin feeling inside
    for the way to the brain,
    flowers an infection.

    Your madness,
    a mirror of the world
    dying of fear."

    As a fan of metal, I loved this. Read a couple a day for a few weeks, listening to the original songs and then rereading the poems Steph created each time, and almost every poem I was still thinking of the following day. Such a great mix of emotion, words, and message. Highly recommended!
