Seeking Books on Modern(ish) Punk & Metal

Books about the origins of punk and metal have been published to death. If I see another book about Black Flag or Metallica I'm going to puke.

I was wondering if any of my readers knew of any books about punk/hardcore/metal scenes after the 1990s?

Here are the ones I currently own:

• Burning Fight: The Nineties Hardcore Revolution in Ethics, Politics, Spirit, and Sound by Brian Peterson (2010)
• New Wave of American Heavy Metal by Garry Sharpe-Young (2005)
• Precious Metal: Decibel Presents the Stories Behind 25 Extreme Metal Masterpieces by Albert Mudrian (2009)
• The Book of Metal: The Most Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Metal Music Ever Created by Chris Ingham (2002)
• HRVST: Death by Hendrik Thiele and Sebastian Thauer (2010)
• The Anti-Matter Anthology: A 1990s Post-Punk & Hardcore Reader by Norman Brannon and Aaron Burgess (2007)

There has to be more books about there about modern/contemporary bands than just these! Tell me what I'm missing in the replies.

I just realized that half of my posts were about new albums I'm excited about. Well, here's my newest crush: One Wing. Cover art, track listing, studio recording and me over-analyzing minor details lie within. [2 Updates] -- Totally forgot to mention WHO released the album, and I also found some 30-second samples of every song.

No Better Time For a Botch Reunion?

As much as I'd love to see hardcore legends Botch reunite, I'm afraid their window for reuniting may be closing. What do you think?
