Heavy Metal Music in Britain
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.

Metaldata: A Bibliography of Heavy Metal Resources is the first book-length bibliography of resources about heavy metal.

CAMION BLANC
De ses débuts de barbare clouté à la Mad Max dans Fallout et Carnivore, en passant par le New York Hardcore et la consécration d’un des groupes les plus emblématiques du Metal des années 90, Type O Negative, Peter Steele ne faisait rien dans la demi-mesure. Du haut de ses deux mètres de haut, il était autant à l’aise sur la scène du mythique CBGB de New York que sur la couverture du magazine de charme Playgirl.
