Produktbeschreibung

An interdisciplinary study of Argentina's heavy metal subculture between 1983 and 2002 - a period in which metal music withstood the onslaught of military dictatorship and survived the neoliberal policies of bourgeois democracy - Heavy Metal Music in Argentina is the first collection of critical essays to be published in English on Argentine metal music, and explores heavy metal music as a catalyst for social change and site for engaging political reflection.

Edited by leading researchers in the field and written by members of the Group for Interdisciplinary Research on Argentinian Heavy Metal (GIIHMA) in a communal approach to scholarship, the book echoes the working-class voices that marked early post-dictatorship metal music in Argentina. The collection addresses the music's rituals, circulations, cultural products, lyrics and intertexts, allowing readers to rethink the genre's place within Argentinean politics and economics.

Suitable for scholars and students across a range of disciplines, as well as general readers with an interest in the genre, Heavy Metal Music in Argentina is a fascinating work of scholarship and a groundbreaking contribution to the emerging field of global metal studies.
