Ooh, this looks good. Audioculture's Andrew Schmidt has really dug deep for this 320-page biography of Peter Jefferies, the cooler than cool founder of Nocturnal Projections, This Kind of Punishment, Plagal Grind, and plenty more incredible moments in Aotearoa's musical history. Out through Hozac Books, Peter Jefferies – The Other Side of Reason ain't no puff piece - it's a damn good story. - Flying Out
Hozac Books is proud to present another foundational brick in the pantheon of New Zealand underground music with Peter Jefferies – The Other Side of Reason, a career-spanning biography by music historian Andrew Schmidt of Audioculture.nz. Covering Jefferies’ earliest musical projects during the first wave punk heyday such as Dull Emma, and Pink Noise on into Nocturnal Projections, This Kind of Punishment, Plagal Grind, Cyclops, and much more in striking detail, the author leaves no stone unturned and weaves Jefferies life story into a gripping saga of innovation, isolation, and redemption. The Other Side of Reason truly shows the endless power of creative perseverance and the intensities that come therein when dealing with that immovable thrust in the core of your being and how to channel that into something that lasts for the ages.
