TWO BOOKS FOR METAL FANS
Metal fans who like to read have two books to dig into this month: Louder Than Hell by Jon Wiederhorn and Katherine Turman and The Merciless Book of Metal Lists by Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins. Louder than Hell is a giant tome subtitled The Definitive Oral History of Metal. It consists of many brief commentary pieces from a who’s who of the genre including Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath, Rob Halford of Judas Priest, Lars Ulrich of Metallica and countless other big shots of metal and lesser-known personalities too, like Necrobutcher and groupie “Sweet Connie” Hamzy. The Merciless Book of Metal Lists is exactly that – a thorough compilation of lists featuring best of and worst of categories, tallying up the greatest, the biggest, the craziest and almost everything else you can think of. There’s humor too, even if it is a little bit mean at times, like the column about Lemmy Kilmister’s (Motorhead) warts. Both titles are widely available now.
