Description

Featuring interviews with members of the biggest bands in the genre, Sound of the Beast gives an overview of the past 30-plus years of heavy metal, delving into the personalities of those who created it. Everything is here, from the bootlegging beginnings of fans like Lars Ulrich to the sold-out stadiums and personal excesses of the biggest groups. From heavy metal’s roots in the work of breakthrough groups such as Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin to MTV hair metal, courtroom controversies, black metal murderers, and Ozzfest, Sound of the Beast offers the final word on this elusive, extreme, and far-reaching form of music.
