'Finally, a book about the music industry that tells the truth. Anyone with any interest in the real stories behind the music they love should devour this visceral examination of art, drugs, mental health and music.' - FRANK TURNER
"This is an important book." -- SIMON NEIL (Biffy Clyro)
"Finally, a book about the music industry, now and in the past, that tells the truth. Anyone with any interest in the real stories behind the music they love should devour this; but they should brace themselves for some difficult stories." -- FRANK TURNER
"This is the ugly truth. And It's an essential read." -- Classic Rock
"I urge absolutely everyone in bands, the music industry and otherwise to read Bodies by Ian Winwood immediately. A sensitive, raw and fascinating look at substance abuse and mental health within the music industry. It felt like a cosmic signal reading it now." -- YARD ACT
"Highly recommended!" -- Louder Than War
"The best and most important books are those that demand to be written. This electrifying, thought-provoking read certainly falls into that category. File under 'essential'." -- Kerrang
"The book has opened up a much-needed debate about the nature of the music industry as an insatiable meat grinder for creative souls with an instinct for self-destruction...Required reading, because living fast and dying young has become distinctly over-rated." -- NME
