Beschreibung

This is the first study of its kind, focusing exclusively on scenes throughout the world; it makes an important contribution to metal studies.

Metal Scenes around the World is a collection of thirteen chapters that examine metal scenes from smaller communities like Dayton, Ohio in the USA, to entire countries, such as Estonia. The goal of the book is to expand the research on metal scenes.

This is the only book produced on metal scenes to date, and it will lead the way to more research in this new area of metal studies. The strongest element of the book is its international focus, with chapters from such diverse settings as post-apartheid South Africa, Graz, Nantes, Brazil and Turkey. The chapters are detailed, richly embedded in local histories and contexts, and provide important analyses of their respective scenes.

Foreword from Henkka Seppaelae, former bassist with the Finnish metal band Children Of Bodom.

Primary readership will be composed of fans and scholars of metal music, and those in the fields of anthropology, musicology and history. The diversity of the chapters connects metal to other disciplines in the music field and the book is likely to have appeal more widely to anyone who likes music.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'As heavy metal is diversifying within a music culture in which active fan participation is crucial in cementing its longevity, these books are not just an excellent read for casual metal fans, but important for present and future heavy music scholars. [...] These books demonstrate not just how the music is produced and performed within non-Western countries, but also how the genre and culture serve to strengthen the global heavy music community.'

Reviewed alongside Decolonial Metal Music in Latin America. -- Laina Dawes, The Wire 'In the introduction Bardine and Stueart suggest eight questions for scholars interested in doing future research in the global metal scene. As the editors suggest, Living Metal offers readers new tools and methods to pursue these questions. - Recommended.' -- CHOICE
