Few forms of music elicit such strong reactions as does heavy metal. Embraced by millions of fans, it has also attracted a chorus of critics, who have denounced it as a corrupter of youth—even blamed it for tragedies like the murders at Columbine. Deena Weinstein argues that these fears stem from a deep misunderstanding of the energetic, rebellious culture of metal, which she analyzes, explains, and defends. She interprets all aspects of the metal world—the music and its makers, its fans, its dress code, its lyrics—and in the process unravels the myths, misconceptions, and truths about an irreverent subculture that has endured and evolved for twenty years.

" Au commencement, le monde n'était qu'une vaste étendue d'obscurité. Là, plongés dans l'oubli, tourbillonnaient les secrets éternels de l'histoire : tout n'était que brume, phosphorescence, ombre et mysticisme. Cette puissance oubliée attendait docilement l'horreur d'une guerre ou d'une catastrophe pour faire éclater ses pouvoirs terrifiants. Longtemps, elle resta ainsi, muette et indéfinie, jusqu'à ce que vienne enfin le jour de la révélation : celui où elle se vit maîtrisée par les mages innocents de Black Sabbath, pères du heavy metal. " Ainsi commence Sound of the Beast. Plus de trente ans après la sortie du premier album de Black Sabbath, Ian Christe nous plonge, loin des clichés, dans l'univers fascinant du heavy metal et retrace son histoire, depuis ses origines au début des années 1970 jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Enrichi d'interviews exclusives de Black Sabbath, Metallica, Morbid Angel, Megadeth, Twisted Sister, Kiss, Slipknot et bien d'autres, et de plus d'une centaine de photos pour la plupart inédites, Sound of the Beast est LA Bible que tout fan de metal se doit de posséder dans sa bibliothèque.

À la fin des années 1960 apparaît le Heavy Metal, musique aux sonorités profondes et saturées. Aujourd'hui, le terme « Metal » regroupe l'ensemble des musiques extrêmes. Il se caractérise par sa diversité, proposant ainsi à ses adeptes un large choix de styles musicaux et de nombreux sous-genres : heavy metal, glam'metal, trash metal, death metal, black metal, metal symphonique, metal folklorique, metalcore, metal industriel… Malgré sa variété et son développement toujours croissant, le Metal reste mal connu du grand public. De nombreux chercheurs et observateurs le présentent comme une contre-culture. Le plus souvent, il est encore considéré par les médias grand public comme un monde peuplé de marginaux peu fréquentables. Il reste perçu comme une musique au mieux simpliste au pire malsaine, comme une culture dangereuse et décadente, sexiste et misogyne. Pourtant les références culturelles et les imaginaires de cette musique sont riches de sources historiques, mythologiques, religieuses et artistiques. La multiplicité de visions et d'imaginaires genrés développés par ce style musical permet de l'étudier dans le cadre de l'histoire du genre et ouvre un large champ d'investigations. Cet essai, qui présente des styles spécifiques des musiques extrêmes, permet de découvrir leurs sources d'inspiration et leurs univers ; il interroge, à travers l'histoire du genre, le concept de contre-culture attaché à la culture Metal.

This book defines the key ideas, scholarly debates, and research activities that have contributed to the formation of the international and interdisciplinary field of Metal Studies. Drawing on insights from a wide range of disciplines including popular music, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, and ethics, this volume offers new and innovative research on metal musicology, global/local scenes studies, fandom, gender and metal identity, metal media, and commerce. Offering a wide-ranging focus on bands, scenes, periods, and sounds, contributors explore topics such as the riff-based song writing of classic heavy metal bands and their modern equivalents, and the musical-aesthetics of Grindcore, Doom metal, Death metal, and Progressive metal. They interrogate production technologies, sound engineering, album artwork and band promotion, logos and merchandising, t-shirt and jewellery design, and fan communities that define the global metal music economy and subcultural scene. The volume explores how the new academic discipline of metal studies was formed, also looking forward to the future of metal music and its relationship to metal scholarship and fandom. With an international range of contributors, this volume will appeal to scholars of popular music, cultural studies, and sociology, as well as those interested in metal communities around the world.

Heavy metal has developed from a British fringe genre of rock music in the late 1960s to a global mass market consumer good in the early twenty-first century. Early proponents of the musical style, such as Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Judas Priest, Saxon, Uriah Heep and Iron Maiden, were mostly seeking to reach a young male audience. Songs were often filled with violent, sexist and nationalistic themes but were also speaking to the growing sense of deterioration in social and professional life. At the same time, however, heavy metal was seriously indebted to the legacies of blues and classical music as well as to larger literary and cultural themes. The genre also produced mythological concept albums and rewritings of classical poems. In other words, heavy metal tried from the beginning to locate itself in a liminal space between pedestrian mass culture and a rather elitist adherence to complexity and musical craftsmanship, speaking from a subaltern position against the hegemonic discourse. This collection of essays provides a comprehensive and multi-disciplinary look at British heavy metal from its beginning through The New Wave of British Heavy Metal up to the increasing internationalization and widespread acceptance in the late 1980s. The individual chapter authors approach British heavy metal from a textual perspective, providing critical analyses of the politics and ideology behind the lyrics, images and performances. Rather than focus on individual bands or songs, the essays collected here argue with the larger system of heavy metal music in mind, providing comprehensive analyses that relate directly to the larger context of British life and culture. The wide range of approaches should provide readers from various disciplines with new and original ideas about the study of this phenomenon of popular culture.

The definition of 'heavy metal' is often a contentious issue and in this lively and accessible text Andrew Cope presents a refreshing re-evaluation of the rules that define heavy metal as a musical genre. Cope begins with an interrogation of why, during the late 1960s and early 1970s, Birmingham provided the ideal location for the evolution and early development of heavy metal and hard rock. The author considers how the influence of the London and Liverpool music scenes merged with the unique cultural climate, industry and often desolated sites of post-war Birmingham to contribute significantly to the development of two unique forms of music: heavy metal and hard rock. The author explores these two forms through an extensive examination of key tracks from the first six albums of both Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, in which musical, visual and lyrical aspects of each band are carefully compared and contrasted in order to highlight the distinctive innovations of those early recordings. In conclusion, a number of case studies are presented that illustrate how the unique synthesis of elements established by Black Sabbath have been perpetuated and developed through the work of such bands as Iron Maiden, Metallica, Pantera, Machine Head, Nightwish, Arch Enemy and Cradle of Filth. As a consequence, the importance of heavy metal as a genre of music was firmly established, and its longevity assured.
