This multi-disciplinary edited collection explores the textual
analysis of heavy metal lyrics written in languages other than
English, including Yiddish, Latin, Russian, Austrian German,
Spanish and Italian. The volume features fascinating chapters on
the role of ancient language in heavy metal, the significance of
metal in minority-language communities, Slovenian mythology in
metal, heavy metal lyrics and politics in the Soviet Union and
Taiwan, processing bereavement in Danish black metal, cultural
identity in Norwegian-medium metal, and the Kawaii metal scene in
Japan, amongst others. Applying a range of methodological
approaches - from literary and content analysis to quantitative
corpus methods and critical approaches - the book conceptualises
various forms of identity via lyrical text and identifies a number
of global themes in heavy metal lyrics, including authenticity,
parody and the desire to sound extreme, that reoccur across
different countries and languages. The book is essential reading
for researchers and students of metal music and culture, as well as
those with broader interests in cultural studies, musicology,
literary studies and popular culture studies.
