Review Revolver, 10/14/14 [A] compelling memoir Like any good rock bio, I'm the Man abounds with tales of debauchery, fisticuffs, and other insanity on the road The book is also full of revelations All this keeps the pages turning. But I'm the Man is not just a tell-all. It's an inspiring tale of perseverance in the face of endless lineup and label changes, rehearsal room fires, and a fickle music industry and it's also a cautionary tale And Ian pulls no punches many, at himself when discussing how the craziness of the touring life makes normal' life almost impossible I'm the Man proves to be the perfect title for the book, because what ultimately crystallizes is a rounded picture of Ian, not as a metal icon, but as a man: one who tried and sometimes failed but always kept trying, and can look back on it all with honesty and clarity. "Eternal Terror, 10/20/14 An interesting and inspiring read No stone is left unturned in this book when it comes to Anthrax Ian is brutally honest and tells it like it is A fast-paced, funny, revealing and at times tragic account of how a geeky boy from New York made it in the world of music and just how thin the line between devastating and triumphant really is, not just in the world of music, but in life in general. The book strikes a really nice balance between the uplifting aspects of being in a metal band as well as all the bullshit, backstabbing, setbacks and pain that ensue from it all One need not be a fan of Anthrax, S.O.D. or even The Damned Things in order to enjoy this book. It is so well-written, humorous, heart-warming and even downright insane in places that one cannot avoid being moved by itA captivating and fascinating read. Highly recommended! My Big Honkin Blog, 10/25/14 It is [Ian's] average Joe- ness that makes his story of struggle, determination and persistence, told in the new bio, I'm the Man, so interesting You can't help but root for the guy. The fact that he didn't go out of his way to screw things up like so many rockers do also tends to make the story uniqueThis one is a great read whether you're a fan or not.

"NoEcho.net, 10/13/14 One of the most outspoken and ubiquitous figures in the heavy metal community, it was inevitable that Ian would someday write an autobiographyThe guitarist is a gifted storyteller, conveying each memory with an enthralling balance of humor, wit, and self-awarenessAlong with Metallica, Slayer, and Megadeth, Anthrax are part of the "Big 4," and Ian offers up the kind of insider stories behind all the groups that trivia hounds will eat upIt doesn't matter if you're a devout Anthrax follower, or just a casual fan of the group, I'm the Man is a fun read, packed with juicy stories from Ian's colorful career on and off stageJust like the song it was named after, I'm the Man is irreverent, hilarious, and, at times, aggressive. LithiumMagazine.com, 10/14/14 Scott Ian has, in his many decades as a touring musician, shared the stage with pretty much everyone who is anyone in hard rock and heavy metal. And he seems to have a photographic memory, as his power of recall has the uncanny ability to virtually bring the reader into the room with himI'm The Man will please Anthrax fans. It will also please music fans who maybe don't know so much about Anthrax. The passion behind his band, perseverance over numerous hardships, and the ability to recount tales gone by with an often humorous stilt makes for an entertaining read. "Stereo Embers, 10/13/14 I'm the Man isn't a typical rock star autobiography. Although it has its share of hilarious stories of drugs and partying, the book refreshingly focuses on the guiding light of Scott's life: music and, in particular, the music of AnthraxThe book is a thrilling ride through the ups and downs of being in a rock and roll bandMoreover, I'm the Man will give you a greater understanding of how the Big 4 thrash bandsAnthrax, Megadeth, Slayer, and Metallicasomehow managed to change the course of heavy music, steering it away from the hair metal of the 1980s through sheer hard work, will, and perseveranceScott Ian really is the manand you'd do yourself a disservice by not reading his thrilling autobiography. This Is Book's Music, 10/18/14 You might read the book thinking it will be nothing but inside stuff about the band and the recording industry, and it does touch on all of this quite well. It also has Ian looking at the world from a personal perspective, to show how he loves his music but is also someone with a mind and a sense of humor. "The Real Rene, 10/14/14 Scott Ian is such a cool and down to earth guy that you feel he is right there with you telling you all these stories. This is not a book about drugs or groupies (well maybe some) but rather a compelling story about one of the coolest guys in rock n roll history. San Antonio Express-News, 10/26/14 A quick, entertaining read that's often laugh-out-loud funny. Scott Ian is a natural storyteller and he offers a clear-eyed, ground-level view of the harder edge of metal that Anthrax helped pioneer. Media Mikes, 10/20/14 I'm the Man is much more than a collection of road stories as Ian delves deep in to his personal experience with love, life and all things Dimebag DarrellOver the book's 316 pages Ian is candid and unabashedA solid readFor newer fans and for those who have followed Scott Not' Ian from the early days this book is for you.
