About this listen

In this hard-rocking, spine-tingling supernatural thriller, the washed-up guitarist of a '90s heavy metal band embarks on an epic road trip across America and deep into the web of a sinister conspiracy.

Grady Hendrix, horror writer and author of Paperbacks from Hell and My Best Friend's Exorcism, is back with his most electrifying novel yet. In the 1990s, heavy metal band Durt Wurk was poised for breakout success - but then lead singer Terry Hunt embarked on a solo career and rocketed to stardom as Koffin, leaving his fellow bandmates to rot in obscurity.

Two decades later, former guitarist Kris Pulaski works as the night manager of a Best Western - she's tired, broke, and unhappy. Everything changes when a shocking act of violence turns her life upside down, and she begins to suspect that Terry sabotaged more than just the band.

Kris hits the road, hoping to reunite with the rest of her bandmates and confront the man who ruined her life. It's a journey that will take her from the Pennsylvania rust belt to a celebrity rehab center to a music festival from hell. A furious power ballad about never giving up, even in the face of overwhelming odds, We Sold Our Souls is an epic journey into the heart of a conspiracy-crazed, pill-popping, paranoid country that seems to have lost its very soul...where only a lone girl with a guitar can save us all.

Pretty average story and narration, but it was free and entertaining in most parts. Probably wont change anyones life, felt like it tried to paint Alex Jones conspiricy theorists as the good guys and i got dayman vs the nightman (iasip) Vibes from the ending.

I’m not particularly into Metal, but I haven’t enjoyed a story of a band from conception to stardom and beyond since Iain Banks’ “Espedair Street” or been so creeped out by the seamy, mythological underbelly of the Rock’n’Roll industry since Harlan Ellison’s “Spider Kiss”…
I’ll definitely be listening to this again…

Legendary!

Carol Monda made this production perfect. Amazing performance! Story flowed well, narrative a lil clunky in spot but the ending is sooooooo good

Loved it. I appreciated Kris's character more as the story went on. I thought I wasn't going to like it as much as My Best Friend's Exorcist, even though I can relate to the subject matter a lot more. By the time of the ending of second last chapter, hell yeah I'd want to be in a band with someone like that.
It explains more than most bios I can think of the spirit of defiance that turns us into metalheads. Belonging too, but Swifties could claim the same - and metalheads I know wouldn't use words like belonging.
I appreciated the far reaching metal references in the titles and elsewhere. Listened a bunch to the Runaways track. I thought WASP merited a mention, maybe they were and I missed it.
Like other reviewers I had a few questions I can't talk about without spoiling the plot but big deal, relatable characters, right on references and a few gnaws inside about the world we've all signed up to and might want to keep from 'them'.
I am glad I discovered this author.
PS, is Terry Ghost?

Wow I am totally totally sold on Grady Hendrix this is one of the best novels I've ever read. If you are a horror fan and a metal fan, or even if you don't like either you gotta read this. #666 #numberofthebeast ps he nails all the band references 💪

Although, I can’t say that I’m a big metal fan even I got a lot of the references. Is it my favourite of his books… I’m not sure but I had a fun time with it.
