The heart of metalheads is in the right place. Everything they do is connected with a lot of love, soul, and heart. Doro Pesch. Metalheads are wild, chaotic, perpetually drunk, violent, and devilish. That's the image of metal fans in society. But is that really the case? No, say die-hard metalheads Dr. Lydia Polwin-Plass and Dr. Michael Gläser, who demonstrate the exact opposite in this book. They shed light on the social aspect of the metal scene. Through conversations with musicians, organizers, emergency responders, metalheads, and non-metalheads, they explore how deeply rooted tolerance, helpfulness, empathy, and inclusion are in the metal community. Many metal fans and musicians engage in social projects and try to contribute to making the world a better place through their own behavior. Once a year, they gather in the tens of thousands on the outskirts of a small northern German village, where since 1990, the Mecca of global metal culture has emerged. So where better to find out how metalheads tick and what society can learn from them than at the legendary Wacken Open Air?.
