Heavy Metal: realism and idealism merged

From The Atlantic:


The great scholar of heavy metal Robert Walser, doing research for his 1993 book, Running With the Devil, interviewed a Twisted Sister fan who told him that the easy-listening music favored by her mother had made her paranoid. In Walser’s words: “It so obviously seems to lie to her about the world.” - The Atlantic

    I've felt this all my life and never been able to express it, other than "commercial music is crap"
