Rough Trade Q&A

Author Harry Sword joins special guest host Stephen Mallinder (Cabaret Voltaire) for an intimate in-conversation celebrating the release of his new novel 'Monolithic Undertow: In Search of Sonic Oblivion'.

Show Notes

Harry Sword and Stephen Mallinder discuss Monolithic Undertow, a book which  alights a crooked path across musical, religious and subcultural frontiers. It traces the line from ancient traditions to the modern underground, navigating archaeoacoustics, ringing feedback, chest plate sub-bass, avant-garde eccentricity, sound weaponry and fervent spiritualism.
