If Motley Crue's riotous tome The Dirt didn't leave its readers feeling grimy enough, then Sixx's collection of diary scraps, rueful recollections and hideously visceral illustrations most surely will' London Lite 20/11 4 stars 'The Heroin Diaries is a bit of a mess, like Sixx' Celebrity Memoirs of the Year, Daily Telegraph 24/11 'The diary, while being entertaining, enlightening and (depressingly) funny, is also brutally honest and sordid and does nothing to glorify drugs and their use' Press Association syndicated review: Glasgow Evening Times 10/11 'The diary, whilst being entertaining, enlightening and (depressingly) funny, is also brutally honest and sordid and does nothing to glorify drugs and their use' Wales on Sunday 11/11 'Motely Crue's bassist Mikki Sixx wants to tell us about his annus horribilis of 1987 - the year his skin nearly rotted off thanks to heroin, cocaine and serious emotional pain, man. Now more than ever, with opioid addiction ravaging our country and rising by twenty percent in the past year alone, Nikki’s story of both his descent into drug-addled decay and subsequent recovery and transition into a rehabilitation advocate are now more relevant than ever.

Magazine 27/10 I've just finsihed reading the book The Heroin Diaries by Nikki Sixx and all I've got to say to whoever will get to read this is READ THIS! As you read this book you will find it hard to believe that Nikki survived all this and came through in the end.

Any hardcore Crue fans will know or have heard about the majority of antics/situations that arise within the pages. By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions. No dirty, shameful detail missed out (or, if they have been, then they must be very dark indeed, as the stuff which made it into the book is jaw-droopingly awful). To glue it altogether we get contributions from other musicians who all verify what Sixx has written.Il libro è arricchito da integrazioni dell'autore, precisazioni di molti protagonisti dell'epoca e degli altri componenti del gruppo, versi e testi di alcune canzoni scritte da Nikki stesso quale principale autore di tutte le canzoni e testi delle canzoni dei Mötley Crüe. Set against the frenzied world of heavy metal superstardom, the co-founder of legendary Motley Crue offers an unflinching and gripping look at his own descent into drug addiction. Also it is a perfect example that shows that one can overcome an addiction and start a new chapter in one's life. After his near death his diaries record his battle with himself and document his rehabilitation finally getting the help he needed.

Here, Nikki shares those diary entries - some poetic, some scatterbrained, some bizarre - and reflects on that time. One of the roadies ('Fast Eddie') scooped up a 14 yo girl who was with us and disappeared into a tour bus with her. This book contains the contents of journals that Nikki wrote while battling severe heroin addiction. He spent days - sometimes alone, sometimes with others addicts, friends and lovers - in a coke- and heroin-fuelled daze.As the creative force behind a multitude of projects, Sixx never stops inventing new ways to express himself and continues to unveil his unusual points of view with new projects. A amazing insight into a rock and roll band this book is clearly written with brutal honesty and nikki has really done it justice he has not only written of the highs but also the lows and his very personal experience with drugs.
