As the title suggests, Necrocock wrote this book with his wife. Their collaborative work will offer readers a unique glimpse into the life in Necrocokvilla, or more specifically, into their kitchen, where cooking is done with great passion and joy. “We are confident that this book will be well received in many households, not only by seasoned gourmets, but especially by the housewives-to-be and young brides to whom our cookbook is addressed, and we are confident it will provide them with much quality inspiration. We believe that our recipes will bring prosperity and domestic happiness into your homes,” say the authors.

Get ready for dozens of varied delicacies that are accompanied by different experiences, funny insights, or travel recollections. In other words… Necro Cook: Podivuhodná kuchařka Toma Necrococka a Houbové Marie will entertain even readers who are not very familiar with cooking. “It will cheer you up with many remarkable heroic stories, great pictures, and passionate music!” adds Necrocock.

It is the music that forms an important part of this extraordinary cookbook. Necrocock was so excited by the cooking that he, barely finishing his feasting, rushed to the studio to record the so-called dining music. “The result is this beautiful, opalescent record named Tafelmusik (Das Vorgericht). It is influenced by baroque music and enhances the enjoyment of the banquets during which our meals will be served,” emphasises Necrocock.

Tafelmusik (Das Vorgericht) can also be seen as a musical appetizer to the next full-length album which is in works as the restless musician confirms.

The artwork and layout of the book was taken care of by Radek “Onehalph” Doleží, who is known for his collaboration with the band Forgotten Silence. Necro Cook: Podivuhodná kuchařka Toma Necrococka a Houbové Marie is published by the Prague-based label MetalGate that two years ago also released Necrocock’s biography called Dělníci kovu I: Necrocock.
