Kill Hannah front man Mat Devine is well known for rocking out on stage, but the popular singer also knows what it is like to feel like an outcast for having different tastes from those in his community. In his new book, Weird War One, Devine tackles tough topics for individuals that feel as though they don't fit in with people in their own communities.
The book features advice from many of Devine's celebrity friends as well including Amanda Palmer, Bam Margera, Benji Madden, Stephen Chbosky, Mikey Way and many others. Readers will read personal stories from others that tell how to cope with their problems in a positive way, such as using music as an influence to be yourself no matter what. The book is a good read for teens or individuals of any age that may be struggling with work or school. Read on for more details and pick up a copy of Weird War One when it releases on October 15, 2013.
“There are many issues addressed in this book, but the overarching theme is the pressure of non-conformity; the strength we all must find to wear our weirdness on our sleeves, and stay true to who we are,” states Mat Devine of his book Weird War One.
“I came into this world feeling like an alien. Things that other people saw as ‘normal’ seemed foreign and strange to me, and vice versa,” says Devine.
