They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us

Excellent collection of essays: thoughtful and searching.

Some I really enjoyed: Carly Rae Jepson Loves You Back, I Wasn't Brought Here, I Was Born Here, Death Becomes You: My Chemical Romance and Ten Years of The Black Parade.

A few essays were stale time capsules like The Weeknd and the Future of Loveless Sex.

But on the whole, a great read about music, race, and nostalgia for the real that flourishes in our youth when finding meaningful connections.
