Articles: 84

Jon Wiederhorn is a senior editor at Revolver, a regular freelancer for Guitar World and SPIN and the co-author of the upcoming book “Louder Than Hell: The Uncensored, Unflinching Saga or Forty Years of Metal Mayhem,” which comes out late this year on HarperCollins’ IT Books. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and two kids and is on a quest to get his 10 year old son to replace his Katy Perry and Selina Gomez MP3s with Black Sabbath and Metallica tracks. Maybe some day.
