It's a story about a band, about the music they make, and about how things go wrong when the rock and roll life is lived to excess. It's also a story about discovery and loss.

Perhaps taking a touch of inspiration from music theory Noon has all but done away with punctuation and capitalisation here, breaking down the structure of every paragraph and sentence to short, beat-driven snippets of text more akin to song lyrics than prose.
