This award-winning expos features hundreds of rare photos and exclusive interrogations with priests, police officers, Satanists, and leaders of demonic bands who believe the greater evil spawns the greatest glory.
"An intense, scary book about an intense, scary scene: black metal, which in the 1990s took heavy metal's obsession with darkness and evil to its logical conclusion. Moynihan and Soderlind chronicle a world of murder, hatred and madness; even if you don't have any interest in the bands (or in the 2018 Jonas kerlund film based on this book), you may come away with a new appreciation for what it means for music to be truly extreme."
