UK’s James Domestic (The Domestics, Tokyo Lungs) has a new book on the way. Domesticated Vol. 1 will be released 24 Apr 2023 via Earth Island Books. More of a collection than a narrative, the book is “a bit of a scrapbook really, there are words, there are photos from gigs and tours, there are illustrations. Some is angry, some humorous. It’s definitely tapping into my inner ‘bastard offspring of John Cooper Clarke and Ivor Cutler’ and I couldn’t be happier with how it’s turned out to be honest!”
Preorders are up now at the Earth Island’s website. Note that it is in pounds, and ships from the UK. Be sure to visit Kibou Records on Bandcamp to hear more of James’ music
the white drew carey (aka – Jeff Sorley) is the founder and head editor of TGEFM. He’s lived (outside of) Chicago, Madison WI, (ugh) Penn State, Lyon FR, Oxford UK, central New Jersey, and now within earshot of SFO in the Bay Area. When not scouring the web for more great bands and labels to post about, he also spends time drawing (mostly) silly sci-fi and anime stuff under the name Asplenia Studios.
