After midnight is as dark as it gets...
Whether thanks to an overnight college radio shift or cable pumping flickering videos into TVs across America, the music of the alternative era was the soundtrack to our lives, and sometimes our deaths. 120 Murders is an anthology of power chord crimes and keyboard horrors--the best noir and dark fantasy, and transgressive fiction from writers inspired by grunge, goth, ska, synthpop, and every electric sound of the alternative era.
Some very good stories, some barely mediocre.
