"What did Adam Parfrey do for me? There are certain books in your life that just blow your f*cking mind. Apocalypse Culture did it It pulled me into the world of sort of artistic, morbid, fascinating, speculative science, and weirdness, you know, types of art that I've never conceived of or understood. But Apocalypse Culture sent me spiraling into that, into a lot of different areas, and I was just thrilled because he (Adam) was a mythological person to me, some sort of dark overlord of important information that nobody else had." Marc Maron

Apocalypse Culture was the first official Feral House publication in 1989 and has remained in print since that day. It has been equally lauded and scorned. Countless artists, writers, thinkers, and publishing companies have cited Apocalypse Culture as opening their minds to entirely new and extreme points of view and ways of being. The book has been blamed for the rise of MAGA, Q-Anon, Alex Jones, and every bad thing about modern American society.

How can one book be the catalyst for such a cultural shift? In fact, Apocalypse Culture remains today as it was in 1989 -- a document of our past, present, and future. Within its pages are stories and reportage from the fringes of American society where viewed in hindsight, they were about to break through to mainstream culture. And maybe a few that are yet to slip into the mainstream. What Parfrey did know in 1989 and still holds true is that the story of America and its culture is never as heroically pure as one may believe.

The Deluxe Edition of Apocalypse Culture is hardbound and slipcased. It contains updated images, many in full-color, and a new introduction by TK.
