Metal Mythology is a deliciously-dark deep dive into the Heavy Metal music genre and the history of the folklore which inspired its music.
The book begins with the story of Heavy Metal's early years in the 1970s, explaining how it became popular with bands from working class British backgrounds like Birmingham's Black Sabbath (with late Ozzy Osbourne) and East End lads Iron Maiden. Today's fanbase - so-called "Metalheads" - will account for 13% of all arena and stadium audiences this year.
