Fargo Rock City

If you like hyper-analytical and highly-intellectual discussions of pop culture (or anything, really), Chuck is your man. The fundamental premise of many of Klosterman's books is that it doesn't matter how good something is, it's importance is defined differently–through popularity, through social impact, etc. Spliced with his personal story, this book makes for an entertaining, thought provoking (especially if you have any softness for 80's metal), and at times hilarious read.
