James Domestic To Release “Domesticated Vol. 1” Illustrated Poetry & Prose Collection

Domesticated Vol. 1 is an eighty-page collection of James Domestic‘s street-poetry and punk-prose. In this often witty, sometimes furious, and sometimes downright surreal collection, James Domestic does, as per usual, whatever the hell he likes, with poetry, prose, lyrics, illustrations and edited photos all thrown into the mix with abandon. Punk, politics, habit, the nature of work, the environment, nostalgia, aging, and some quintessentially British whimsy, all crammed in together like a last-minute bag hurriedly packed for tour. Domesticated Vol. 1 will be released on the 24th April via Earth Island Books and is now available for pre-order.

Somehow it works. A man in too many bands to count, including The Domestics, PI$$ER, Da Groins, Tokyo Lungs, Hazard Profile, Körd Värld, Botched Toe, Cabro, Bring The Drones and Dub Weasel. He is also a solo artist, a vocalist, a songwriter, a DJ, a poet, a painter, someone who failed miserably at school, spent his early post-school life between the chemical factory and the dole, and somehow now has a PhD. A square peg in life’s round hole. A face that never really fitted. He couldn’t care less. Come along for the ride.
