Summary

More than a half-century since its birth, heavy metal has grown from cultural phenomenon to mainstream presence to worldwide expression. Its musical aptitude-whether raw or complex-has become a near-ubiquitous catharsis, allowing listeners and musicians to channel distress. Moving from continent to continent, Assault of the Earthprofiles some of the best and most unique practitioners of a now-universal musical language, whether it's unadulterated or avant-garde. And whether they're world renowned or deep underground, these fifty anomalous groups each offer an uncommon perspective on the genre, with styles that range from Egyptian death metal to Scandinavian folk metal, Taiwanese black metal, collaborative Afghan industrial metal, American electro-grind, progressive metal fusion, and ambient doom metal. Join the global metal movement as these artists discuss the impact that a smaller planet, overlapping cultures, and the Internet have had and will have on the still-evolving metal species.
