    🤘 🎸 I chose to take Rock History as a elective for college. Yes it was an easy A, but still a great class. Especially when we got to listen to songs and write a page essay for extra credit.
    The parental advisory sticker totally backfired and it was hilarious.

    Ah, you have me out of my comfort zone here, I usually only love acoustic music (classical, jazz & bluegrass), but my son-in-law loves heavy metal, & this would make an amazing Christmas present. I love your enthusiasm & knowledge, & you have me very curious (well, for my son-in-law, anyway). Thanks for another wonderful video.

    I remember the PMRC hearing back in the eighties (basically because of the Satanic panic). I loved Dee Sniders speech.

    This sounds like a cool book and I’m bummed it’s out of print. Will need to be on the hunt!

    Great review Nicole, I might have to track this book down. Metallica are my favourite band so I don't mind them being a focus.

      I hope you can find it! It was kinda hard for me in the U.S, so I hope you can get it where you are.

      @NicolesBookishNook I've looked on Ebay and it's going for about £10 so not too bad for an oop book.

    Great discussion. I like both Metallica and Megadeth. I think Megadeth is more consistent in the albums. But Metallica is a better live band. I think Metallica transcended metal. One band I hope the book talks about prominently is Iron Maiden. They were my gateway into heavy metal. I got the Piece of Mind album around 1983. Iron Maiden with Twisted Sister opening was my first metal concert. I did listen to some death metal and black metal bands in the mid to late aughts. I did like them, but your point about the vocals is a good one. Even when I was reading the lyrics while listening to the song, if I lost my place, I couldn't find it. I often wonder why they even tried to create lyrics when listerers can't understand them

      Thank you so much! Iron Maiden is in the book and I enjoy them a lot.

    Okay but how do you not notice the publication date and complain about dates being left out when it ends at a certain point in time? 😂
    Heavy metal doesn't summon Satan? I don't believe you! 😈
