He writes about post-punk, hauntology, neoliberalism, depression, class, education and digital culture without separating cultural experience from political structure. The book’s scale makes it uneven by design—part archive, part intellectual autobiography, part record of a vanished blog culture—but that sprawl is precisely its value. It preserves a critic thinking in public, testing concepts against whatever passed through the screen or headphones. For readers interested in cultural criticism, music writing, capitalist realism and the political life of feeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRepeater Books paperback.
