Bad Blood – A Life Without Consequence book & album
My name is David B. Roundsley and “Bad Blood – A Life Without Consequence” (Book and Album) is my memoir about the search for my birth parents and my DNA origins. I am a musician (writing and recording as Munich Syndrome since the mid-80’s), graphics and multimedia designer and an adoptee. This book lays out and details the unexpected search for my DNA origins and brings to light the far-reaching consequences of poor judgments and bad decisions.
The story reads on many levels: true-crime, adventure, mystery and in some respects a how-to for anyone sincerely interested in discovering the truth about their DNA origins and past. Covering many decades and many lives, the book is a documentation of my search and the many families that were affected.
I am also a musician, writing and recording under the name Munich Syndrome since the mid-80’s. While this is my first book, the accompanying soundtrack / curated listening will be my 11th album.
The genesis of the Bad Blood album was to initially do a song for the book and Kickstarter project (“Bad Blood, the Ballad of a Bad Man”), but evolved into a soundtrack / curated listening experience to accompany the book.
Bad Blood – Soundtrack / Curated Listening is the 11th album from Muncih Syndrome
The 16-track album of dreamy electronica mixed with acoustic instruments is cinematic, atmospheric, dreamy, mysterious and an aural companion to the book.
