A stepfather’s job is never easy, especially when you have to raise your stepdaughter alone after the death of her mother, even more so when the idyllic relationship you once had with a beloved little girl deteriorates into a never ending fight with an arrogant eighteen year old young woman. However, the fact that your stepdaughter is now an adult woman also has some positive implications. For example, the fact that when to provoke you she starts walking around the house half naked and playing increasingly daring pranks on you, you can respond with even more wicked pranks of your own. | |||

Every day affords an opportunity for growth, she reminds us, and with this wise and compassionate book, she lights the way. | |||
| Come as You Are - Dahlia Adler | 27 May 2025 | 09:10:40 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Come as You Are Author: Dahlia Adler Narrator: Mia Hutchinson-Shaw Format: Unabridged Length: 9:10:40 Language: English Release date: 05-27-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Fiction, Teen, Romance Summary: In this opposites attract romance for fans of Begin Again and Better Than the Movies, a fresh start doesn't have to mean changing yourself. Hot on the heels of a broken heart, Everett “Evie” Riley arrives at Camden Academy ready for a new beginning - one far away from her cheating ex-boyfriend, the sister who stole him, and the best friend who let it happen. But her fresh start is stopped in its tracks when she's accidentally placed in an all-boys dorm, with no choice but to stay. When rumors and gossip about Evie's housing predicament spread like wildfire, she decides the only way to survive is to lean into her questionable new reputation... but she's definitely going to require help. Her grumpy emo dorm mate Salem Grayson isn't exactly her first choice, but he does need her help to repair his relationship with his parents every bit as much as she needs his to learn how to be cool. And so they make a pact: he'll teach her how to be bad, if she teaches him how to be good. It's a flawless plan, except while Salem thrives academically, romantically, and–annoyingly enough– even physically, Evie's quest feels like one dead end after another. But when Evie realizes what she wants more than anything, she'll have to contend with her thrice-broken heart and figure out how to become someone capable of chasing happiness. Dahlia Adler’s Come As You Are is about refusing to accept less than you deserve, and realizing that the best relationships are forged with people who know exactly who you are. 'Heartfelt and hopeful. In Come As You Are, Dahlia Adler deftly combines the witty dialogue of a grumpy-sunshine romance with the emotional turmoil of searching for self-acceptance. This is the royal flush of YA romances!' - Kristy Boyce, bestselling author of Dungeons and Drama | |||

| Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique - Dan LeRoy | 13 May 2025 | 03:26:42 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique Author: Dan LeRoy Narrator: Stacy Carolan Format: Unabridged Length: 3:26:42 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Derided as one-hit wonders, estranged from their original producer and record label, and in self-imposed exile in Los Angeles, the Beastie Boys were written off by most observers before even beginning to record their second album - an embarrassing commercial flop that should have ruined the group's career. But not only did 'Paul's Boutique' eventually transformed the Beasties from a fratboy novelty to hiphop giants, its sample-happy, retro aesthetic changed popular culture forever. | |||
| Celine Dion's Let's Talk About Love - Carl Wilson | 13 May 2025 | 05:28:12 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Celine Dion's Let's Talk About Love Author: Carl Wilson Narrator: Trenton Bennett Format: Unabridged Length: 5:28:12 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Praise for the book: 'Brilliant.' -- Alex Ross, author of The Rest is Noise 'This could be the best book of the series...razor-sharp and unerringly intelligent.' -- John Wenzel, The Denver Post “A book pondering the aesthetics of Celine risks going wrong in about 3,000 different ways...Instead, this book goes very deeply right.” --Sam Anderson, New York MagazineTens of millions of people around the world love Céline Dion. Carl Wilson explores the reasons why in this extraordinary book. Immersing himself in Dion's 1999 hit album Let's Talk About Love (the one with that Titanic song on it), he examines everything from Céline's Quebec roots to her enormous voice. | |||
| Janet Jackson's The Velvet Rope - Ayanna Dozier | 13 May 2025 | 03:42:25 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Janet Jackson's The Velvet Rope Author: Ayanna Dozier Narrator: Janina Edwards Format: Unabridged Length: 3:42:25 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: The question of control for Black women is a costly one. From 1986 onwards, the trajectory of Janet Jackson’s career can be summed up in her desire for control. Control for Janet was never simply just about her desire for economic and creative control over her career but was, rather, an existential question about the desire to control and be in control over her bodily integrity as a Black woman. This book examines Janet’s continuation of her quest for control as heard in her sixth album, The Velvet Rope. Engaging with the album, the promotion, the tour, and its accompanying music videos, this study unpacks how Janet uses Black cultural production as an emancipatory act of self-creation that allows her to reconcile with and, potentially, heal from trauma, pain, and feelings of alienation. The Velvet Rope’s arc moves audiences to imagine the possibility of what emancipation from oppression--from sexual, to internal, to societal--could look like for the singer and for others. The sexually charged content and themes of abuse, including self-harm and domestic violence, were dismissed as “selling points” for Janet at the time of its release. The album stands out as a revelatory expression of emotional vulnerability by the singer, one that many other artists have followed in the 20-plus years since its release. | |||
| Clash's Sandinista! - Micajah Henley | 13 May 2025 | 03:20:31 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Clash's Sandinista! Author: Micajah Henley Narrator: John Pirhalla Format: Unabridged Length: 3:20:31 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Following the success of their instantly iconic double LP, London Calling, The Clash set out to do something “triply outrageous.” Named after the Nicaraguan rebels who successfully overthrew an authoritarian dictator, Sandinista! consists of 36 songs across six sides of vinyl. Produced by the band, it showcases their politics as well as their ability to adopt a multitude of genres ranging from punk, reggae, jazz, gospel, calypso, and hip hop. Free from the influence of their Machiavellian manager, Bernie Rhodes, The Clash still battled their record label to release the triple LP on their terms: three for the price of one. Despite its polarizing reception from critics at the time of its release, Sandinista! is often considered one of the greatest albums of all time. Nevertheless, critics and fans have spent over 40 years debating whether the album would be better as a 12-track LP. This book entertains that idea and considers what is lost or gained in the process. To do so, the book delves into the politics of The Clash, the spliff bunkers constructed for the production of the album, and the sacrifices made upon its release. It examines the album's 36 tracks and considers the significance of the record's dissection on behalf of fans who curate their own versions of the album in the mixtape, CD, and playlist eras. | |||
| Jeff Buckley's Grace - Daphne A Brooks | 13 May 2025 | 04:17:59 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Jeff Buckley's Grace Author: Daphne A Brooks Narrator: Tanya Eby Format: Unabridged Length: 4:17:59 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: The power and influence of Grace increases with each passing year. Here, Daphne Brooks traces Jeff Buckley's fascinating musical development through the earliest stages of his career, up to the release of the album. With access to rare archival material, Brooks illustrates Buckley's passion for life and hunger for musical knowledge, and shows just why he was such a crucial figure in the American music scene of the 1990s. EXCERPT: Jeff Buckley was piecing together a contemporary popular music history for himself that was steeped in the magic of singing. He was busy hearing how Dylan channeled Billie Holiday in Blonde On Blonde and how Robert Plant was doing his best to sound like Janis Joplin on early Led Zeppelin recordings. He was thinking about doo-wop and opera and Elton John and working at developing a way to harness the power of the voice...In the process, he was re-defining punk and grunge ''attitude'' itself by rejecting the ambivalent sexual undercurrents of those movements, as well as Led Zeppelin's canonical ''cock rock'' kingdom that he'd grown up adoring. He was forging a one-man revolution set to the rhythms of New York City and beyond. And he was on the brink of recording his elegant battle in song for the world to hear. | |||
| Pink Floyd's The Piper at the Gates of Dawn - John Cavanagh | 13 May 2025 | 02:45:49 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Pink Floyd's The Piper at the Gates of Dawn Author: John Cavanagh Narrator: Philip Battley Format: Unabridged Length: 2:45:49 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Through a series of interviews with a wide range of people connected to Pink Floyd in their earliest days (including Nick Mason, Peter Jenner, Jenny Fabian, Storm Thorgerson, Duggie Fields and Peter Whitehead), John Cavanagh paints a vivid picture of how this remarkable debut album was created. He brings to life the stories behind each track, as well as Pink Floyd's groundbreaking live performances of the time. EXCERPT The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is a wondrous creation often seen through the distorted view of later events. These things have served to overshadow the achievement of The Pink Floyd on their debut album: an outstanding group performance; a milestone in record production; and something made in much happier circumstances than I had expected to find...This is not another book about ''mad Syd''. This, instead, is a celebration of a moment when everything seemed possible, when creative worlds and forces converged, when an album spoke with an entirely new voice. ''Such music I never dreamed of,'' as Rat said to Mole. | |||
| Velvet Underground's The Velvet Underground and Nico - Joe Harvard | 13 May 2025 | 03:14:58 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Velvet Underground's The Velvet Underground and Nico Author: Joe Harvard Narrator: Brian Telestai Format: Unabridged Length: 3:14:58 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: The Velvet Underground and Nico has influenced the sound of more bands than any other album. And remarkably, it still sounds as fresh and challenging today as it did upon its release in 1967. In this book, Joe Harvard covers everything from Lou Reed's lyrical genius to John Cale's groundbreaking instrumentation, and from the creative input of Andy Warhol to the fine details of the recording process. With input from co-producer Norman Dolph and Velvets fan Jonathan Richman, Harvard documents the creation of a record which - in the eyes of many - has never been matched. | |||
| Oasis' Definitely Maybe - Alex Niven | 13 May 2025 | 03:37:48 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Oasis' Definitely Maybe Author: Alex Niven Narrator: Matt Haynes Format: Unabridged Length: 3:37:48 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Oasis’s incendiary 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe managed to summarize almost the entire history of post-fifties guitar music from Chuck Berry to My Bloody Valentine in a way that seemed effortless. But this remarkable album was also a social document that came closer to narrating the collective hopes and dreams of a people than any other record of the last quarter century. In a Britain that had just undergone the most damaging period of social upheaval in a century under the Thatcher government, Noel Gallagher ventriloquized slogans of burning communitarian optimism through the mouth of his brother Liam and the playing of the other Oasis ‘everymen’: Paul McGuigan, Paul Arthurs and Tony McCarroll. On Definitely Maybe, Oasis communicated a timeworn message of idealism and hope against the odds, but one that had special resonance in a society where the widening gap between high and low demanded a newly superhuman kind of leaping. Alex Niven charts the astonishing rise of Oasis in the mid 1990s and celebrates the life-affirming, communal force of songs such as “Live Forever,” “Supersonic,” and “Cigarettes & Alcohol.” In doing so, he seeks to reposition Oasis in relation to their Britpop peers and explore one of the most controversial pop-cultural narratives of the last thirty years. | |||
| Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - Kim Cooper | 13 May 2025 | 02:58:58 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea Author: Kim Cooper Narrator: Tanya Eby Format: Unabridged Length: 2:58:58 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Of all the recordings to emerge from the Athens-via-Denver collective called Elephant 6, Neutral Milk Hotel’s second album is the one that has worked its way under the most skins. Magnet magazine named it the best album of the 1990s, and Creative Loafing recently devoted a cover story to one fan’s quest to understand why band leader Jeff Mangum dropped out of sight soon after Aeroplane’s release. The record sells steadily to an audience that finds it through word of mouth. Weird, beautiful, absorbing, difficult, In The Aeroplane Over the Sea is a surrealist text loosely based on the life, suffering and reincarnation of Anne Frank, with guest appearances from a pair of Siamese twins menaced by the cold and carnivores, a two-headed boy bobbing in a jar, anthropomorphic vegetables and a variety of immature erotic horrors. Mangum sings his dreamlike narratives with a dreamer's intensity, his creaky, off key voice occasionally breaking as he struggles to complete each dense couplet. The music is like nothing else in the 90s indie underground: a psychedelic brass band, its members self-taught, forging polychromatic washes of mood and tribute. The songs stick to one narrow key, the images repeat and circle back, and to listen is to be absorbed into a singular, heart-rending vision. | |||
| Alcools - Guillaume Apollinaire | 13 May 2025 | 02:04:38 | |
Écoutez ce livre audio dans son intégralité gratuitement sur https://hotaudiobook.com/free Titre: Alcools Auteur: Guillaume Apollinaire Narrateur: Jean-Christophe Aquaviva Format: Unabridged Durée: 2:04:38 Langue: Français Date de publication: 05-13-2025 Éditeur: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Fiction & Literature, Poetry Résumé: Alcools (1913) est un recueil de poèmes de Guillaume Apollinaire qui illustre la transition entre tradition et modernité. Riche et varié, le recueil mêle des formes classiques et des innovations audacieuses, telles que l'absence de ponctuation. Les thèmes abordés oscillent entre amour, mélancolie, souvenirs et quête d'un idéal. Des poèmes comme Zone, tableau de la vie parisienne, ou Le Pont Mirabeau, hymne à l’amour perdu, témoignent de la tension entre l'ancien et le nouveau Monde. Apollinaire puise dans ses expériences personnelles, ses voyages et ses émotions pour créer des images poétiques surprenantes et universelles, tout en intégrant des influences symbolistes et futuristes. Alcools est une célébration de la beauté et de la fragilité de l'existence, offrant une poésie à la fois lyrique, déroutante et profondément humaine. | |||
| Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited - Mark Polizzoti | 13 May 2025 | 04:23:05 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited Author: Mark Polizzoti Narrator: Paul Bellantoni Format: Unabridged Length: 4:23:05 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Highway 61 Revisited resonates because of its enduring emotional appeal. Few songwriters before Dylan or since have combined so effectively the intensely personal with the spectacularly universal. In ''Like a Rolling Stone,'' his gleeful excoriation of Miss Lonely (Edie Sedgwick? Joan Baez? a composite ''type''?) fuses with the evocation of a hip new zeitgeist to produce a veritable anthem. In ''Ballad of a Thin Man,'' the younger generation's confusion is thrown back in the Establishment's face, even as Dylan vents his disgust with the critics who labored to catalogue him. And in ''Desolation Row,'' he reaches the zenith of his own brand of surrealist paranoia, that here attains the atmospheric intensity of a full-fledged nightmare. Between its many flourishes of gallows humor, this is one of the most immaculately frightful songs ever recorded, with its relentless imagery of communal executions, its parade of fallen giants and triumphant local losers, its epic length and even the mournful sweetness of Bloomfield's flamenco-inspired fills. In this book, Mark Polizzotti examines just what makes the songs on Highway 61 Revisited so affecting, how they work together as a suite, and how lyrics, melody, and arrangements combine to create an unusually potent mix. He blends musical and literary analysis of the songs themselves, biography (where appropriate) and recording information (where helpful). And he focuses on Dylan's mythic presence in the mid-60s, when he emerged from his proletarian incarnation to become the American Rimbaud. The comparison has been made by others, including Dylan, and it illuminates much about his mid-sixties career, for in many respects Highway 61 is rock 'n' roll's answer to A Season in Hell. | |||
| Kate Bush's Hounds Of Love - Leah Kardos | 13 May 2025 | 04:22:42 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Kate Bush's Hounds Of Love Author: Leah Kardos Narrator: Maria Nicola Johnson Format: Unabridged Length: 4:22:42 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Hounds Of Love invites you to not only listen, but to cross the boundaries of sensory experience into realms of imagination and possibility. Side A spawned four Top 40 hit singles in the UK, ‘Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)’, ‘Cloudbusting’, ‘Hounds of Love’ and ‘The Big Sky’, some of the best-loved and most enduring compositions in Bush’s catalogue. On side B, a hallucinatory seven-part song cycle called The Ninth Wave broke away from the pop conventions of the era by using strange and vivid production techniques that plunge the listener into the psychological centre of a near-death experience. Poised and accessible, yet still experimental and complex, with Hounds Of Love Bush mastered the art of her studio-based songcraft, finally achieving full control of her creative process. When it came out in 1985, she was only 27 years old. This book charts the emergence of Kate Bush in the early-to-mid-1980s as a courageous experimentalist, a singularly expressive recording artist and a visionary music producer. Track-by-track commentaries focus on the experience of the album from the listener’s point of view, drawing attention to the art and craft of Bush’s songwriting, production and sound design. It considers the vast impact and influence that Hounds Of Love has had on music cultures and creative practices through the years, underlining the artist’s importance as a barrier-smashing, template-defying, business-smart, record-breaking, never-compromising role model for artists everywhere. | |||
| Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kirk Walker Graves | 13 May 2025 | 03:23:09 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Author: Kirk Walker Graves Narrator: Torian Brackett Format: Unabridged Length: 3:23:09 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: In the first decade of the twenty-first century, Kanye West created the most compelling body of pop music by an American artist during the period. Having risen from obscurity as a precocious producer through the ranks of Jay Z's Roc-A-Fella records, by the time he released My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (MBDTF) in late 2010, West had evolved into a master collagist, an alchemist capable of transfiguring semi-obscure soul samples and indelible beats into a brash and vulnerable new art form. A look at the arc of his career, from the heady chipmunk soul exuberance of The College Dropout (2004) to the operatic narcissism of MBDTF, tells us about the march of pop music into the digital age and, by extension, the contradictions that define our cultural epoch. In a cloud-based and on-demand culture – a place of increasing virtualization, loneliness, and hyper-connectivity – West straddles this critical moment as what David Samuels of The Atlantic calls ''the first true genius of the iPhone era, the Mozart of contemporary American music.'' In the land of taking a selfie, honing a personal brand, and publicly melting down online, Kanye West is the undisputed king. Swallowing the chaos wrought by his public persona and digesting it as a grandiose allegory of self-redemption, Kanye sublimates his narcissism to paint masterstroke after masterstroke on MBDTF, a 69-minute hymn to egotistical excess. Sampling and ventriloquizing the pop music past to tell the story of its future – very much a tale of our culture's wish for unfettered digital ubiquity – MBDTF is the album of its era, an aesthetic self-acquittal and spiritual autobiography of our era’s most dynamic artist. | |||
| Led Zeppelin's Led Zeppelin IV - Erik Davis | 13 May 2025 | 04:01:26 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Led Zeppelin's Led Zeppelin IV Author: Erik Davis Narrator: Eric Altheide Format: Unabridged Length: 4:01:26 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: In this wickedly entertaining and thoroughly informed homage to one of rock music's towering pinnacles, Erik Davis investigates the magic—black or otherwise—that surrounds this album. Carefully peeling the layers from each song, Davis reveals their dark and often mystical roots—and leaves the reader to decide whether [FOUR SYMBOLS] is some form of occult induction or just an inspired, brilliantly played rock album. Excerpt: Stripping Led Zeppelin's famous name off the fourth record was an almost petulant attempt to let their Great Work symbolically stand on its own two feet. But the wordless jacket also lent the album charisma. Fans hunted for hidden meanings, or, in failing to find them, sensed a strange reflection of their own mute refusal to communicate with the outside world. This helped to create one of the supreme paradoxes of rock history: an esoteric megahit, a blockbuster arcanum. Stripped of words and numbers, the album no longer referred to anything but itself: a concrete talisman that drew you into its world, into the frame. All the stopgap titles we throw at the thing are lame: Led Zeppelin IV, [Untitled], Runes, Zoso, Four Symbols. In an almost Lovecraftian sense, the album was nameless, a thing from beyond, charged with manna. And yet this uncanny fetish was about as easy to buy as a jockstrap. | |||
| AC DC's Highway To Hell - Joe Bonomo | 13 May 2025 | 03:29:32 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: AC DC's Highway To Hell Author: Joe Bonomo Narrator: Heath Miller Format: Unabridged Length: 3:29:32 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Released in 1979, AC/DC's Highway To Hell was the infamous last album recorded with singer Bon Scott, who died of alcohol poisoning in London in February of 1980. Officially chalked up to ''Death by Misadventure,'' Scott's demise has forever secured the album's reputation as a partying primer and a bible for lethal behavior, branding the album with the fun chaos of alcoholic excess and its flip side, early death. The best songs on Highway To Hell achieve Sonic Platonism, translating rock & roll's transcendent ideals in stomping, dual-guitar and eighth-note bass riffing, a Paleolithic drum bed, and insanely, recklessly odd but fun vocals. Joe Bonomo strikes a three-chord essay on the power of adolescence, the durability of rock & roll fandom, and the transformative properties of memory. Why does Highway To Hell matter to anyone beyond non-ironic teenagers? Blending interviews, analysis, and memoir with a fan's perspective, Highway To Hell dramatizes and celebrates a timeless album that one critic said makes 'disaster sound like the best fun in the world.' | |||
| Nirvana's In Utero - Gillian G Gaar | 13 May 2025 | 02:41:16 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Nirvana's In Utero Author: Gillian G Gaar Narrator: Erin Bennett Format: Unabridged Length: 2:41:16 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Though Nevermind was Nirvana's most commercially successful album, and the record that broke them - and the grunge phenomenon - internationally, In Utero has increasingly become regarded as the band's best album, both by the critics and the band members themselves. Instead of sticking to the 'grunge pop' formula that made Nevermind so palatable to the mainstream, Nirvana chose instead to challenge their audience, producing an album that the band's creative force, Kurt Cobain, said truly matched his vision of what he had always wanted his band to sound like. Here, the full story behind the creation of In Utero is told for the first time. | |||
| Talking Heads' Fear of Music - Jonathan Lethem | 13 May 2025 | 04:05:27 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Talking Heads' Fear of Music Author: Jonathan Lethem Narrator: Keith Brown Format: Unabridged Length: 4:05:27 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: It's the summer of 1979. A 15-year-old boy listens to WNEW on the radio in his bedroom in Brooklyn. A monotone voice (it's the singer's) announces into dead air in between songs ''The Talking Heads have a new album, it's called Fear of Music'' - and everything spins outward from that one moment. Jonathan Lethem treats Fear of Music (the third album by the Talking Heads, and the first produced by Brian Eno) as a masterpiece - edgy, paranoid, funky, addictive, rhythmic, repetitive, spooky and fun. He scratches obsessively at the album's songs, guitars, rhythms, lyrics, packaging, downtown origins, and legacy, showing how Fear of Music hints at the directions (positive and negative) the band would take in the future. Lethem transports us again to the New York City of another time - tackling one of his great adolescent obsessions and illuminating the ways in which we fall in and out of love with works of art. | |||
| Duran Duran's Rio - Annie Zaleski | 13 May 2025 | 04:38:09 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Duran Duran's Rio Author: Annie Zaleski Narrator: Susan Althens Format: Unabridged Length: 4:38:09 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: In the '80s, the Birmingham, England, band Duran Duran became closely associated with new wave, an idiosyncratic genre that dominated the decade's music and culture. No album represented this rip-it-up-and-start-again movement better than the act's breakthrough 1982 LP, Rio. A cohesive album with a retro-futuristic sound—influences include danceable disco, tangy funk, swaggering glam, and Roxy Music's art-rock—the full-length sold millions and spawned smashes such as ''Hungry Like the Wolf'' and the title track. However, Rio wasn't a success everywhere at first; in fact, the LP had to be buffed-up with remixes and reissued before it found an audience in America. The album was further buoyed by colorful music videos, which established Duran Duran as leaders of an MTV-driven second British Invasion, and the group's cutting-edge visual aesthetic. Via extensive new interviews with band members and other figures who helped Rio succeed, this book explores how and why Rio became a landmark pop-rock album, and examines how the LP was both a musical inspiration—and a reflection of a musical, cultural, and technology zeitgeist. | |||

J. Niimi tells the story of the album's genesis - with fascinating input from Don Dixon and Mitch Easter. He also investigates Michael Stipe's hypnotic, mysterious lyrics, and makes the case for Murmur as a work of Southern Gothic art. | |||
| Britney Spears's Blackout - Natasha Lasky | 13 May 2025 | 04:08:42 | |

She divorced her husband, lost custody of her kids, went to rehab, shaved her head and assaulted a paparazzo. In the midst of her public breakdown, she managed to record an album, Blackout. Critics thought it spelled the end for Britney Spears’ career. But Blackout turned out to be one of the most influential albums of the aughts. It not only brought glitchy digital noise and dubstep into the Top 40, but also transformed Britney into a new kind of pop star, one who shrugged off mainstream ubiquity for the devotion of smaller groups of fans who worshipped her idiosyncratic sound. This book returns to the grimy clubs and paparazzi hangouts of LA in the 2000s as well as the blogs and forums of the early internet to show how Blackout was a crucial hinge between twentieth and twenty-first-century pop. | |||
| Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly - Sequoia Maner | 13 May 2025 | 04:03:15 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly Author: Sequoia Maner Narrator: Angel Pean Format: Unabridged Length: 4:03:15 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: Breaking the global record for streams in a single day, nearly 10 million people around the world tuned in to hear Kendrick Lamar’s sophomore album in the hours after its release. To Pimp a Butterfly was widely hailed as an instant classic, garnering laudatory album reviews, many awards, and even a canonized place in Harvard’s W. E. B. Du Bois archive. Why did this strangely compelling record stimulate the emotions and imaginations of listeners? This book takes a deep dive into the sounds, images, and lyrics of To Pimp a Butterfly to suggest that Kendrick appeals to the psyche of a nation in crisis and embraces the development of a radical political conscience. Kendrick breathes fresh life into the Black musical protest tradition and cultivates a platform for loving resistance. Combining funk, jazz, and spoken word, To Pimp a Butterfly’s expansive sonic and lyrical geography brings a high level of innovation to rap music. More importantly, Kendrick’s introspective and philosophical songs compel us to believe in a future where, perhaps, we gon’ be alright. | |||
| Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA - Geoffrey Himes | 13 May 2025 | 03:50:02 | |
Listen to this audiobook in full for free on https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA Author: Geoffrey Himes Narrator: Andrew Eiden Format: Unabridged Length: 3:50:02 Language: English Release date: 05-13-2025 Publisher: INAudio (formerly Findaway Voices) Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music Summary: When Bruce Springsteen went back on the road in 1984, he opened every show by shouting out, ''one, two, one, two, three, four,'' followed by the droning synth chords of ''Born in the U.S.A.'' Max Weinberg hit his drums with a two-fisted physicality that cut through the swelling chords. With a rolled-up red kerchief around his head and heavy black boots under his faded jeans, Springsteen looked like the character of the song, and from the very first line (''Born down in a dead man's town'') he sang with the throat-scraping desperation of a man with his back against the wall. When he reached the crucial lines, though, the guitars and bass dropped out and Weinberg switched to just the hi-hat. Springsteen's voice grew a bit more private and reluctant as he sang, ''Nowhere to run. Nowhere to go.'' It was as if he weren't sure if this were an admission of defeat or the drawing of a line in the sand. But when the band came crashing back at full strength—building a crescendo that fell apart in the cacophony of Springsteen's and Weinberg's wild soloing, paused and then came together again in the determined, marching riff—it was clear that the singer was ready to make a stand. | |||

We were poised to do another album, and I guess because the axiom ‘If it works, run it into the ground’ was prevalent then, we were probably poised to do Rumours II. I don’t know how you do that, but somehow my light bulb that went off was, ‘Let’s just not do that. Let’s very pointedly not do that.’ ” Here, Rob Trucks talks to Lindsey Buckingham, as well as members of Animal Collective, Camper Van Beethoven, the New Pornographers, Wolf Parade, and the USC Trojan marching band in order to chart both the story and the impact of an album born of personal obsession and a stubborn unwillingness to compromise. | |||

After their love ended in heartbreak, they never expected to see each other again, but when terror enters Ruby’s life, Charlie Book is the only safe harbor she can believe in. In his work for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Book has been living aboard and studying the Christabel, a 19th century freighter that lies half-sunken in Gulf waters, just off the shore of Galveston. Over many years, a massive forest of mangrove trees has grown up through the deck of the ship, creating a startlingly beautiful enigma Book calls the Floating Forest, full of birds, crabs, and snakes. Though a powerful storm churns through the Gulf, Book intends to sleep on board as usual. But when he arrives at the dock, preparing to motor out to the Christabel, he’s stunned to find Ruby there waiting for him. And Ruby’s not alone. With her are a mysterious, terrified woman named Johanna and an infant child. They need Book to hide them safely aboard the Christabel while they're on the run, only it isn’t the police who are after them. It’s the coven of witches Johanna has fled, stealing away the helpless infant for whom they had hideous plans…or so Johanna claims. It’s lunacy. Book wants nothing to do with it. But after the way he and Ruby ended things, and the unspoken pain between them, he can’t refuse. Yet even as he brings them out to the ruined ship and its floating forest, back in Galveston there are shadowed figures out in the storm, sniffing the air like bloodhounds. And despite the worsening wind and rain, the night birds are flying, scouring the coastline as if searching for their prey. | |||

On a spring day in 1926, Aimee Semple McPherson wandered into the Pacific Ocean and vanished. Weeks later she reappeared in the desert, claiming to have been kidnapped. A national media frenzy and months of investigation ensued. Who was this woman? America’s most famous evangelist, McPherson was a sophisticated marketer who used spectacle, storytelling, and the newest technology—including her own radio station—to bring God’s message to the masses. Her innovations brought Pentecostalism into the mainstream, paved the way for televangelists, and shaped the future of American Christianity. Her Angelus Temple in Echo Park, Los Angeles, can be called the first megachurch. Her Foursquare Church continues, with more than eight million faithful around the world. But after her disappearance, as crowds gathered at the water’s edge, people asked: Was McPherson everybody’s saintly sister, or a con-artist sinner? The story of what happened next—sex scandals, religious persecution, legal shenanigans, the seemingly unshakable faith of thousands of followers, and the race to cover it all—runs through the center of Claire Hoffman’s thrilling Sister, Sinner. A riveting journey into the rise of popular religion in America and life in early Hollywood, and told with the flavor of the period's noir mysteries, this is an unforgettable story of an iconic woman, largely overlooked, who changed the world. | |||

Motherhood is hard. It's full of plenty of moments where a mom might think, “I don’t know if I can do this.” Danielle Sherman-Lazar has had this thought many times as she’s raised her four young daughters under 10, from her struggles with breastfeeding to two of her daughters’ stays at the NICU. Through personal and honest stories on motherhood and her struggles with eating disorders, Mothers are Made shows how moms aren’t instantly born along with their babies—mothers are made through time and experience.

Mothers are Made will help moms realize that they can handle crises as they arise—large or small. And they will recognize that they are not alone in their struggles. Danielle’s vulnerability will help readers find the courage to keep going through the uncomfortable parts of motherhood, knowing they’ll get to the other side—a better, happier, and stronger mom. | |||

All of them were born on Mars, a planet that never wanted people in the first place. With resources scarce and hope even scarcer, it’s easy to get distracted looking up. After all, their ancestors descended from the stars. Martian history always starts with Earth. The first astronauts discovered that space was already occupied. Not by little green men or flying saucers. It was full of dragons. One for every moon, every planet, every star. When humanity discovered that Earth’s dragon had sacrificed herself to make their home planet habitable, they set their sights on Mars. If one dead dragon could breathe life into a world, why not create another one? Mankind won the war that followed, but with one catch. As the dragon died, he whispered a curse over Mars. The first settlers found their crops wouldn’t grow. Animals hunted them. Storms raged endlessly. It took three generations to figure out the truth: Mars was doomed. Lunar knows all the old stories about dragons and space, but no one up there’s planning to help him or his crew. Instead, he focuses on scrapping valuable gear that the storms uncover in the war zone. Until one day, a salvaging run goes wrong. Desperate to find shelter, Lunar goes underground in a restricted zone. What he finds there, buried in the Martian dust, might just be the only hope left for a dying planet. | |||

Personas con trastornos como la ansiedad, la depresión o el estrés intentan aliviarlo con el consumo de estas sustancias. Dando lugar, por ejemplo, a enfermedades comunes y a la vez graves como la esquizofrenia alcohólica. Por lo tanto, la ingesta de drogas o alcohol, y la ansiedad u otras enfermedades mentales no es una buena combinación. A corto plazo pueden dar sensación de euforia o proporcionar alivio, pero a largo plazo las consecuencias de la adicción son muy negativas: De hecho, en muchos pacientes con adicciones se detectan trastornos psiquiátricos que requieren un abordaje conjunto. En estas situaciones hablamos de pacientes que necesitan un tratamiento de patología dual. | |||

Los sentimientos que predominan son negativos y esto supone un gran desgaste para todos. Para un dependiente al alcohol, esto está por encima de todo lo demás. Antes que ser el padre o esposo e hija o madre, se es alcohólico. Por esto, se descuidan las responsabilidades, las relaciones y los sentimientos de los demás. Si crees que en tu familia hay algún problema de adicción al alcohol, ten presente que es una enfermedad y no es culpa de nadie. Es adecuado hablarlo abiertamente y pedir ayuda. | |||
