Headbanger Advisory: Contains Academic LanguageBy Oliverio CasasThis book is neither a fan pleasing exploration of different extreme metal scenes or genres nor a catalogue of underground heavy metal bands and their discographies. In fact; this is a very serious study of the extreme metal subculture from a socio-anthropological point of view written with a very dry; academic style. The core material used in this book comes from the authors doctoral thesis investigations; so dont expect any fun anecdotes or trivial band information here: the subjects tackled by the author (underground metal label economics; gender relationships; cultural capital; racism and political activism to name a few) are far from light hearted; and while not mandatory; an academic background in social science or communications will surely help the reader sift through some of the harder theoretical constructs this investigation is based upon. Even if the author considers himself a big fan of the music; he does manage to maintain an observant and neutral point of view throughout most of his analysis and makes some very valid points regarding the scenes future and its irresponsible handling of sexism and undesirable white power bands using the excuse that musical credibility is far more important than politics. This book is ideal for metal fans seeking to expand their knowledge about the subject beyond the usual band discography information and reviews usually found in books that cover heavy metal.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Worth the read for any "serious" hessianBy Probs A CatIf you love metal but have always wondered what does a scholar think of my music? Then this book would be your answer. Its a bit dense in places and the author has a way of writing that sometimes causes his meaning to be lost and his sentences to collapse under their own weight. This book doesnt delve too much into the anthropology and culture of the music; if you want that youll have to settle for Headbangers Journey.Overall; I would suggest this book to lifelong Hessians; music critics; and people who regularly watch documentaries or read dissertations.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. An assertive take on what Heavy Metal is and was.By HectorAn assertive take on what Heavy Metal especially the extreme and underground side of it is and was; its importance in society and the presentation of its reality from many different points of view; the musician; the fan; the producers; the market; etc. It takes the theme in a very respectful and serious way; and it also shows that is a well researched thoughtful write.
