Paperback, 40 pagesDimensions: 8.5" x 6.3" ID: b321TRGb321TRGCover price: $10 "Awesome" —Sasha Frere-Jones Assembling thousands of negative words and phrases from 13,090 reviews by Robert Christgau, Brian Joseph Davis thwarts the ways in which music criticism is metabolized—or "consumed"—in the public mind. Here, we savor a playful exploration of language's harsh possibilities, one that caught the attention of Kenneth Goldsmith: "The Consumed Guide takes music criticism and renders it obsolete..." With all of conceptual writing's charms, Davis delivers a text that relishes antagonism and yet that is feeling enough to welcome us in.
