The book loses its way a little by the end with the music becoming less interesting and popular as the initial shock of the new fades away but I doubt there'll be a better book written on this subject. Enjoyed many of the little tidbits of information too - how the production on early Grind releases was so raw as no producers or engineers had ever heard anything like it before so didn't have a clue how to master it, how Earache Records was started basically as a benefits dodge (and how they passed on Fear Factory and Sepultura just before they both blew up) and the term "Death Metal" was coined by a bored high school student. Foreword and several quotes from the late, great John Peel too - he amusingly (and correctly) compares the initial grind recordings to 90s Happy Hardcore which would undoubtedly annoy hardcore metal heads.
Recommended for any fans of the music.… (más)
