Spanning from extreme heavy metal to sweet ear-candies pop, it has become a solid presence in our collective sensibility. However, it has largely been neglected due to its refusal of anything hi-fi and hi-tech. The Great Psychic Outdoors, dedicated to the most interesting and controversial artists in this movement, aims to rectify this injustice and vindicate the revolutionary potential of lo-fi music. Engaging with this weird genre on its own terms, the book confronts the aesthetic and conceptual stakes of lo-fi, showing what it says about us, our lives under capitalism, and the strange ways we cope with pain, madness, and beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 218g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 x 197 x 23 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781914420603\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Enrico Monacelli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44285439508730,"sku":"9781914420603","price":8.71,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1686932267804_book.jpg?v=1687101227","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-great-psychic-outdoors-lofi-music-and-escaping-capitalism-9781914420603","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
