Nklas Kvarforth's new book is coming out in a limited run, for those that plan to purchase one or already have one, this is a place to discuss what it contains. Also referring to the youtube trailer he said that whoever gets the last copy recieves something extra. Would be interested in knowing what this is.

He's trying really hard with that title, huh? :ugh:

Dude is like the Slade Craven of DSBM guys. What a caricature--er--character.

Yeah, I read the Facebook status he posted awhile ago promoting his book. I could barely finish reading the preface let alone the whole book. The exaggerated cynicism and depressive rhetoric just came off way too pretentious. Please tell me he dies in the end :P

What a pretentious fucking idiot
The one who buys the last copy of this will probably get pages stained with Kvarforth's jizz, or something like that, joke's on him

KVARFORTH'S LYRICS COLLECTED AND TRANSLATED

"Far too long I’ve been pestered each and every day by people from all around this disgusting planet asking if I can translate this or that lyric into English.

Up until a few months ago this seemed to be an impossible task due to the poetic style I use when writing Swedish. However, after several months of frustration I've put something truly horrific together and was so pleased with the result I decided to collect them all and make them into a book.

I don't think many of you are truly interested in reading these, even though you say you do. As we all know, it is “true” to state you really do care about the lyrics of a band like Shining. But being "true" is probably the only reason you say so.

So go ahead, prove me wrong."

-Kapellmästare Kvarforth, October 2012

WHEN PROZAC NO LONGER HELPS

First edition hand-numbered in the author’s own blood.
"When Prozac No Longer Helps" contains every lyric ever written by Kvarforth in both its original language and in English.

Only available through the Shining Legions shop.

Price includes VAT 10%.


So that's supposed to be a book of lyric translations? Interesting...

What can I say? I love shitty movies. :-D
Also, I couldn't think of any "Metal character" more forced and phony than that to compare lil' Nicky to...

Book looks pretty cool. I could use some insight into real depression. Therapists and callgirls haven't gotten anywhere.

26 Euro? Wait for the 0.99 cent used version to pop up on eBay, methinks.

Don't even bother. Soon enough it will find its way online and since it's translated lyrics the contents will inevitably show up on sites such as this one. Which is good, because 25 € is a laughable price for something like that.
