The ominous side of metal steps into the spotlight as today’s newspaper headlines begin to match heavy metal song lyrics. Join us today as we look disaster in the eyes with a strong dose of infectious plague- and pandemic-themed tracks by Cannibal Corpse, Death, Slayer, Pestilence, Kreator, Napalm Death, Morbid Angel, Carnivore, Pig Destroyer, and more.

Track the spread of heavy metal back to riff zero in the book SOUND OF THE BEAST: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal.
