  Title Archaic Modernism: The Art of Christophe Szpajdel Type Book Whole
  Year 2020 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 252  
  Keywords  
  Abstract “Christophe's work is extremely sought after, and it has now gained interest from clients outside the metal scene. By far one of the most prolific but also the furthest reaching artist with now around 10,000 logos completed to date. Art Deco and Art Nouveau are the real sources of inspiration, exploring the abyss of imagination in crafting a logo and at the same time, aesthetically pleasant, attractive and functional. 'Archaic Modernism' takes a journey into the artist visual universe and philosophy, accompanied by the works of Stanislav Krawczyk.”

  Title Turned Inside Out: : The Official Story of Obituary Type Book Whole
  Year 2022 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 328  
  Keywords Obituary, death metal, Florida, John Tardy, Trevor Peres, Donald Tardy  
  Abstract Tampa, Florida's Obituary has been a death metal institution since 1984. Guided by the inhuman, if not unfathomably deranged vocals of John Tardy, the obscenely brutal guitar tone of Trevor Peres and rhythmic brilliance of drummer Donald Tardy, Obituary defined heaviness throughout the 1990s. Their 1989 'Slowly We Rot' and 1990 'Cause of Death' studio albums are undisputed classics, but their live prowess and unwavering dedication to their fans made them one of the metal underground's most respected bands.An unexpected five-year hiatus starting in 1998 only saw Obituary's stature grow when a new generation of bands adopted their sonic trademarks. However, their post-reformation efforts were nearly sidetracked by the perils of the music industry and inter-band tumult. Through the unbreakable bond between the Tardy brothers and Peres, Obituary emerged stronger than ever, entrenched in their rightful position as death metal vanguards.'Turned Inside Out: The Official Story of Obituary' is the fully authorized biography of Obituary, providing an unprecedented look into the band's career through in-depth interviews, studio recollections, road stories and scores of exclusive photos.

  Title The Law of the Metal Scene: An Interdisciplinary Discussion Type Book Whole
  Year 2024 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract <<Produktbeschreibung: Metal Studies is a genuinely interdisciplinary research field. However, different specialist traditions, differing theoretical and methodological approaches, and also terminological “translation difficulties” make collaboration within the field difficult. This volume aims to explore the potential and limitations of interdisciplinary work by examining an example area – the laws of Heavy Metal – from the point of view of central disciplines. Laws are regarded as social conventions – i.e., rules that are made by human beings and are culturally stable. Examples of laws include conventions of musical language, the dress code in the metal scene, behavioural norms, and conventions in writing song lyrics.

The volume includes contributions from the fields of law, social ethics, art history, religious studies, musicology, sociology, linguistics, and cultural history.>>

  Title Meta/Metal: Open Questions in Metal Studies Type Book Whole
  Year 2024 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract <<Produktbeschreibung: Metal Studies is a “booming” research field that has gained tremendous momentum in recent years. In this field, Heavy Metal is studied both as a cultural practice and as a musical genre. However, many of the most urgent conceptual questions have remained unanswered – especially those that lie outside the research interests of the founding disciplines of Metal Studies. This first volume of the book series “Meta/Metal” tries to answer some of these questions. The book brings together contributions by leading scholars and young experts, each of which responds to one of the conceptual desiderata that have so far arisen in Metal Studies. All contributions share a commitment to combining basic research with empirical accuracy in this research field.>>

  Title Make Metal Small Again Type Book Whole
  Year 2023 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 193  
  Keywords  
  Abstract <<Metalbands stehen auf gewaltigen Bühnen, vor Verstärkertürmen und Tausenden wilder Fans. Sie trinken kübelweise Bier, rauschen in Tourbussen durch die Nacht und besingen Sex, Drogen und den Tod. Ihr größtes Ziel: Wacken. Alle Metalbands? Nein!

Eine kleine Metalband tingelt seit zwei Jahrzehnten über Dorffeste, Vereinsfeiern, Hochzeiten, Vernissagen und durch Geburtstagspartys. Sie hat keine Verstärker, keine Plattenfirma. Sie liefert annähernd CO2-neutralen Metal wie Pizza auf Bestellung und hätte einmal beinahe Angela Merkel beschallt. Sie singt nur übers Wetter und spielt im Sitzen, gediegen gekleidet und teetrinkend. Sie richtet sich gleichermaßen an Bildungsbürger, Mutbürger, Spießbürger. Ihr Name: Malmzeit. Ihr Genre: Kammermetal. Ihr Motto: Make Metal Small Again!

Tauchen Sie ein in die völlig irre Bandbiographie der kleinsten Metalband der Welt, verfasst von den Musikern selbst. Ein Buch voller bizarrer Ereignisse, das komplett erfunden sein könnte, wäre nicht jedes Wort wahr!>>

[Metal bands stand on huge stages, in front of amplifier towers and thousands of wild fans. They drink beer by the bucketful, rush through the night in tour buses and sing about sex, drugs and death. Your biggest goal: Wacken. All metal bands? No!

A small metal band has been playing at village festivals, club celebrations, weddings, openings and birthday parties for two decades. She has no amplifiers, no record company. It delivers almost CO2-neutral metal like pizza to order and once almost gave Angela Merkel sound. She just sings about the weather and plays while sitting, dressed dignified and drinking tea. It is aimed equally at educated citizens, courageous citizens and philistines. Her name: Malmzeit. Her genre: chamber metal. Their motto: Make Metal Small Again!

Immerse yourself in the completely crazy band biography of the smallest metal band in the world, written by the musicians themselves. A book full of bizarre events that could be completely made up if every word wasn't true!]

<<Produktbeschreibung: Ende der 1960er Jahre entwickelte sich der Hard Rock weiter zu noch härteren, schnelleren Klängen. Die ersten Alben von “Black Sabbath” gelten gemeinhin als die Geburtsstunde des Heavy Metal. Obwohl wiederholt totgesagt, ist diese Musikrichtung bis heute ungemein erfolgreich und hat sich in mehrere hundert Subgenres ausdifferenziert. Einst drückte die laute und aggressive Musik den Unmut der sozial Abgehängten am gesellschaftlichen Rand aus, doch inzwischen hören auch viele Akademiker und Wohlhabende Metal. Heute wie damals geht es für die eingefleischten Metal-Fans längst nicht nur um die Musik, sondern vielmehr um ein Lebensgefühl. Und so wird noch immer der Mythos vom Outlaw zelebriert, während die Szene schon längst mitten in der Gesellschaft angelangt ist, denn allein in Deutschland hören Millionen von Menschen diese Art Musik. Als globales Kulturphänomen zieht Heavy Metal mittlerweile mehr und mehr Aufmerksamkeit auf sich und entwickelt sich in Richtung Popkultur. Gleichzeitig beschäftigt sich die Szene oft mit Themen, die in der modernen Konsumkultur verdrängt werden. Themen wie etwa Gewalt, Angst und Tod. Jörg Scheller bringt es in der NZZ (06.07.2018) auf den Punkt: “Metal ist hart, weil das Leben hart ist und der Ponyhof nie weit entfernt vom Schlachthof. Dieser Sound fordert die Konfrontation mit der dunklen Seite, aber auch persönlichen Einsatz und Verantwortung. Erkenntnisse und Entscheidungen nimmt er niemandem ab. Stets muss Metal decodiert, interpretiert, diskutiert werden. Wie moderne Kunst ist er offen in der Bedeutung. Und genau deshalb umstritten.”

Insofern ist es keine Überraschung, dass dieses Phänomen auch an den Universitäten bereits seit mehreren Jahrzehnten von diversen Disziplinen erforscht wird. Eine Unzahl hochinteressanter Studien sind das Ergebnis. Allerdings werden diese meist ausschließlich in wissenschaftlichen Fachbüchern publiziert. Hier setzt unsere Reihe “Metalbook” an, die sich ganz gezielt an ein Sachbuchpublikum wendet und spannende Themen und Phänomene aus der Metal-Szene behandeln möchte.

Höchste Zeit also, die “Metalbooks” in unsere Buchläden zu bringen ...

[Product description: At the end of the 1960s, hard rock continued to develop into even harder, faster sounds. Black Sabbath's first albums are generally considered to be the birth of heavy metal. Although it has repeatedly been declared dead, this style of music is still extremely successful today and has differentiated itself into several hundred subgenres. The loud and aggressive music once expressed the discontent of those left behind on the social margins, but now many academics and wealthy people also listen to metal. Today, as then, for die-hard metal fans it's not just about the music, but rather about an attitude to life. And so the myth of the outlaw is still celebrated, while the scene has long since reached the heart of society, because in Germany alone millions of people listen to this type of music. As a global cultural phenomenon, heavy metal is now attracting more and more attention and developing into pop culture. At the same time, the scene often deals with topics that are suppressed in modern consumer culture. Topics such as violence, fear and death. Jörg Scheller sums it up in the NZZ (July 6, 2018): “Metal is hard because life is hard and the pony farm is never far from the slaughterhouse. This sound demands confrontation with the dark side, but also personal commitment and He doesn't take responsibility for insights and decisions from anyone. Metal always has to be decoded, interpreted and discussed.

In this respect, it is no surprise that this phenomenon has been researched by various disciplines at universities for several decades. The result is a multitude of highly interesting studies. However, these are usually published exclusively in scientific textbooks. This is where our “Metalbook” series comes in, which is aimed specifically at a non-fiction audience and aims to cover exciting topics and phenomena from the metal scene.

So it's high time to bring the ”Metalbooks" into our bookstores...]
