Digital sanctuary of writer-author-vinyl record forager Jason Pettigrew.

My contribution to Bloomsbury’s acclaimed 33 1/3 series, The Land Of Rape And Honey  - about the making of the groundbreaking 1988 Ministry album - was released May 1, 2025. The next day, I launched the book in (where else?) Chicago, MCing a Skatenigs show at Liar’s Club, speaking at Millikin University's Midwest Music Expo, and holding court with post-punk icon Martin Atkins at the PPIM Museum.

I then went west to meet up with the legendary Paul Barker in Los Angeles to talk about the creation of LORAH (the album and the book) before heading to Pasadena for Cruel World, where I kicked off Club Doom as its first DJ for 2025.

My book exploits will be ongoing, so check here often for updates, and photos of my fugitive dog Arto. Thanks!
