Author Jason Arnopp was a rock journo for Kerrang! magazine, long before he wrote the novel The Last Days Of Jack Sparks about a doomed rock journalist.
During 14 years of service to rock, he was held at gunpoint at The Vatican with Cradle Of Filth, went on a hair-raising Hollywood joyride with The Cult's Ian Astbury and bickered with Pantera in Baton Rouge.
From The Front Lines Of Rock gathers 30 of Arnopp's greatest interviews, mostly for world-famous rock weekly Kerrang!

TESTIMONIALS
"Jason Arnopp is one of those ludicrous, funny people who manages to get the most reticent of stars to tell him things that they really shouldn't. As a journalist, he is blessed with a remarkable bedside manner. He might teach you a thing or two" - Phil Alexander, MOJO and KERRANG!
"It was my very happy experience to work with and read Jason for years on Kerrang! One thing marked Jason apart in his field - he had the invaluable ability to ask the unexpected question that caught both subject and reader off guard, and unfailingly meant you found out something new" - Paul Rees, Q and KERRANG!
"With a great sense of humour and a sharp ear for the telling quote, Jason Arnopp always gets the goods. Read and learn" - Andrew Harrison, Q, MIXMAG and SMASH HITS.
