Heavy Metal in Comics

Heavy Metal is a genre that, by its very nature, has always been the music of outsiders. The sound, lyrics, imagery, symbolism — everything in metal is subordinated to the ultimate frankness of feelings and emotions. But what is the history of this incredible musical direction? Who is considered the founder of metal? Who invented the legendary goat? What subgenres exist within heaviness? In their book, French author Jacques de Pierpont and illustrator Hervé Boury, being convinced fans of metal, took on this vast cultural layer to neatly organize all the canons of the most untamed style of rock. If the names Ozzy Osbourne, Lemmy Kilmister, and Varg Vikernes mean something to you, and the names Metallica and Sepultura resonate in your memory with roaring riffs and wailing solos, then this collection is what you need! BONUS! A chapter about domestic metal has been added to the book specifically for our edition! - Simply and clearly tells about all the subtleties of the musical genre; - Will tell a lot of interesting and often unknown facts about your favorite bands; - Will expand your everyday playlist with many new, previously unknown groups; - A great gift for anyone who has a soft spot for rock music.
