Join us for incantations, hymns, and headbanging madness from Tengger Cavalry, Skyclad, Mezarkabul, Cemican, Yomi, Eluveitie, Hardingrock, Heilung, Primordial, Chthonic, Zeal & Ardor, and more.
Check the fifty-year growth of heavy metal, including the first emergence of folk influences, in SOUND OF THE BEAST: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal.
