This Thanksgiving week, we bring to the table a heavy metal history lesson uniting fifty years of heavy metal roots with centuries of North American roots. Bands from Canada to Mexico and all across the U.S. bring Native American legends, history, and outlooks in bands including Nechochwen, Dying Tribe, Resistant Culture, Damage Overdose, Pan-Amerikan Native Front, Testament, and more.
