Bang Your Head The Rise and Fall of Heavy Metal

Bang Your Head is an epic history of every band and every performer that has worn the Heavy Metal Badge. Charting the genesis of early metal with bands like Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden; the rise of metal to chart-topping phenomenon; the 'hair metal' 80s and a demise fuelled by the explosion of the Seattle grunge scene and the ‘alternative’ revolution. Bang Your Head is as funny as it is informative, and it proves once and for all that there is more to metal that sin, sex and spandex.
