    Time Out New York / Issue 686 : Nov 20–26, 2008

    Gift guide: Music

    Razer Mako Advanced Desktop Speakers (razerzone.com, $399.99) The MySpace plunderer on your list needs a set of compact desktop speakers that sound as sleek as they look. Get her the Razer Mako system, a little spendy but far from outrageous for the boom-baciousness it delivers on all sorts of digital audibles.




    John Varvatos Bowery gift certificate (John Varvatos, price flexible) Let your favorite rock geek rifle through the vintage clothes, audio equipment and vinyl at the hallowed former home of CBGB. He can play the store’s Captain Fantastic Elton John pinball machine while he’s at it. johnvarvatos.com




    Madonna Calendar (Signatures Network, $13.99) This glossy confection puts forth so many faces of Madge, your giftee may have forgotten they all existed. There are no actual date squares to write on, but who cares? Each month provides a full two-page spread of a different soon-to-be-former Mrs. Ritchie, from thrift-store slut to New Age vixen and beyond. Sadly, no shots of her heart-to-hearts with A-Rod are included. amazon.com




    Kill Audio doll (killaudio.com, $40) This gruesome holiday-season self-caricature is the first in a series of near-death dolls designed expressly by Coheed and Cambria’s Claudio Sanchez, who moonlights as a comic-book author.




    The Encyclopedia of Punk (Sterling, $24.95) and State of the Axe (Yale University Press, $24.95) Two new giftable tomes run the coffee-table gamut: a splashy chronicle of DIY rock and a classy collection of jazz-guitarist portraits.

    The Encyclopedia of Punk


    State of the Axe
