Nevermind : It’s Only Rock of Ages

“The power of music is unique in its ability to transform our senses,” says Sal Nudo, who chronicles the music of his youth and its effect on his life in ‘Nevermind: It’s Only Rock of Ages (Featuring Def Leppard and Nirvana)’. In an intelligent, humorous, and creative commentary, Nudo examines and compares the rise and fall of slick metal bands like Def Leppard against the raw, unprocessd energy of later groups like Nirvana. In so doing, Nudo reveals a slice of his high school and college life — a time when pizza and loud music meant everything. We witness an entertaining transformation and maturation of his musical tastes, from bang-your-head music with heavy sexual innuendos to the genuine, unpolished passion of independent, alternative rock. ‘Nevermind…’ is a thoroughly enjoyable commentary on rock music, as well as a discussion of a young man’s coming of age.
