Stoning Roll is a new kind of music publication that focuses on albums through the literary lenses of the avant-garde, surrealism and magic realism. Each edition includes essays, short-stories etc. on widely known albums by seminal artists from one generation or another. In addition, similar treatment is given to an album by a featured contemporary up and coming artist. The resulting apocryphal tales are interesting in their own right, and also serve as a unique kind of introduction to important albums for readers who are unfamiliar with them. Readers who are already familiar with highlighted albums will hopefully gain a new appreciation of them, and an ability to conceive of artists and their music in a previously unimagined way.Also, featured contemporary artists benefit by receiving free publicity for their album, in keeping with Stoning Roll’s philosophy of promoting great new music.
