Frontman of one if my favorite bands, The Airborne Toxic Event, I was delighted to learn he had written a memoir. I was absolutely floored to learn of his tumultuous early life. And that is just the start of it.This memoir reads so much like a novel that I had to remind myself that it is somebody's actual life story. The hype of this memoir is real and well deserved.
