James, K. E. (2026). Indonesian Death Metal and Indonesian Society. London, England: Palgrave Macmillan.
Abstract: “This book explores Indonesia's vibrant Death Metal underground, which, by many accounts, is the largest in the world. The peak of Indonesia’s Death Metal scene occurred between 2009 and 2013, centered in Bandung, the capital of West Java, a city long known for its art and culture. This book traces the development of the scene in Bandung and other East Javanese cities like Surabaya, Malang, and Kediri, as well as the more conservative Madura Island. It examines the relationships between these scenes through the lens of governing myth and mythscape, focusing on how Bandung came to dominate the national and even regional scene, and the response from East Javanese cities. Drawing on over 90 interviews with more than 60 Indonesian bands, conducted between 2011 and the present, this book offers an in-depth look at this unique musical subculture.”

Kruk, J., & Robertson, W. C. (2025). Peripheral Linguistic Brutality: Metal Languaging in the Asia Pacific. Asia Pop!. Honolulu, Hawaii: University of Hawaii Press.
Abstract: << Peripheral Linguistic Brutality is a sociolinguistic investigation into the production of “metalness” through language in the Asia Pacific. Focusing on the ways local music scenes adopt, reject, and modify linguistic ideologies, Jess Kruk and Wesley Robertson (hosts of the podcast Lingua Brutallica) examine how translocal participation in metal settings shapes how and why specific language forms are used to construct “metal language.”
Although much research has been done on language flows and use in global subcultures, their volume intervenes in two key ways. First, most prior work has focused on hip-hop, which unlike metal has an established “origin” dialect, namely AAVE (African American Vernacular English), linked to concepts of authenticity in the scene. Secondly, writing on global language flows has centered around what happens when a language, mainly English, enters a new space or context—not on how individuals employ imported forms and reimagine already extant linguistic resources as indexes, or markers, of new identities. Through interviews with practicing metal lyricists from Australia, Indonesia, Japan, and Taiwan, Peripheral Linguistic Brutality therefore fills gaps in the knowledge of language’s role in translocal subcultures.
Specifically, it sheds new light on how global subcultures spawn new local beliefs about the meaning and purpose of language forms, the sociolinguistic conflicts that can arise and influence language use when a scene enters a new locale, and metal itself as a global practice. >> Source: https://uhpress.hawaii.edu
