Library Journal This is one of the few books that provides a

serious study of this most loud and rebellious form of rock'n'roll.

Beginning with pioneers such as Black Sabbath in the early 1970s,

Weinstein traces the roots of the music and the bands who played

it, from England's hardcore headbangers to their American

counterparts plus a lot of the lightweight pretty-boy bands of the

1980s. Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information. Chicago

misunderstanding of the energetic, rebellious culture of metal,

which she analyzes, explains, and defends. The music and its

makers, its fans, its dress code, its lyrics-she interprets all

aspects of the metal world, and in the process unravels the myths,
