The lyrics of High On Fire/Sleep frontman/guitarist Matt Pike will be given the illustrated treatment for an upcoming book titled ‘Matt Pike’s Head On A Pike: The Illustrated Lyrics Of Matt Pike‘. Rare Bird will be publishing that book on November 09th with Pike‘s lyrical content being given a visual treatment by artists such as Arik Roper, David V. D’Andrea, Santos, Brian Mercer, Skinner, Jondix, Stash, Tim Lehi, Jordan Barlow and Derrick Snodgrass.
Tyson Cornell of Rare Bird commented:
“Matt Pike’s lyrics are just as important and powerful as his riffs, and his words deserve to be celebrated alongside the fantastic imagery that the artists have put together in this book. ‘Head On A Pike‘ is a natural for any Sleep, High On Fire or Matt Pike fan, but the work is also relevant to greater conversations around lyrical poetry, formal and free verse and tattoo inspirations for years to come.”
Pre-orders are available now at rarebirdlit.com. Pike himself has been working on his first solo album as of late with release details for it still pending.
