"Türkiye'de heavy-metal'in miladı hangi yıldır?
Yıllar yılı bu ülkeye punk rock'ın, heavy-metalin ve hardrock'ın seksenli yıllarda giriş yaptığı, askeri darbe sonrasında gençlerin kendilerini ifade edecek tüm sosyal ve siyasal yolları tıkanmışken bu tip "yabancı" akımların Türkiye'de faşizm sonrasında gençliğin yegane nefes alma alanları olarak üniversiter gençlik arasında moda olduğu vaazedilegeldi.

Norton's gallery of the goriest and most memorable death metal album covers. Warning, this one is not for the faint of heart!

"Orson Welles Records Two Songs with the 1980s Heavy-Metal Band Manowar
Heavy metal music enjoyed the pleasures of excess in the 1980s, an era when, if you believe certain biographers, writer-actor-auteur Orson Welles did the very same. Though some describe the life of the man who made Citizen Kane as having by then fallen into a final period of great decadence...
