The box set will contain a beautiful leather-bound book (every copy signed and numbered) plus 2 CDs compiled by Julian and produced by ACE Records which are designed to be listened to whilst reading.
Every box set will include a ticket for an intimate, exclusive evening with Julian at Rough Trade East in London on Thursday 21st June (Summer Solstice). Only limited edition holders will have access to the evening which promises to be both weird and wonderful in equal measure!

The book itself comprises of a collection of album reviews and themed track samplers that lay out an alternative history of the last six decades of popular music, written by the visionary musician, antiquarian and musicologist.
The result is a feast of obscure and neglected masterworks; Krautrock, motorik and post-punk, stoner and doom metal, occasionally even jazz, spoken word and hair metal.
Cope is the perfect guide to this novel terrain: impeccably informed, passionate, insightful and deeply funny.
The Copendium is his reimagining of a useful canon of popular music, and it is set to become required reading.
