Review
I regularly read books about musical instruments (including electric guitar amplifiers and effects), musicians, and music genres. In the past I have mainly read books about popular and folk music styles including blues, country, rockabilly, surf and folk (Americana). We can now add a history of Heavy Metal, including: Proto Metal; Thrash; Grunge; British Steel; Crossover/Hardcore; Industrial; Nu Metal; Death Metal; Black Metal; Metal Core; Grind/Grindcore; and Millenial Metal. Crazy stuff... I've got two books on US Blues and one on Australian Roots sitting on the shelf to bring me back down to earth. But I admit this book, Louder than Hell, was so well written and so full of information it should remain in my library to read again someday.
