Seeing Metal Music in Latin America and the Caribbean [EPUB ebook] 

For many fans, metal was visual before it was aural. This book explores the visual dimensions of metal music from the specific socio-historic, geographic, and political positionality of Latin America and the Caribbean where this visual register allows creators and consumers to engage in four distinct strategies (i.e., seeing, revealing, inverting, and appearing) as part of what the authors have termed ‘;extreme decolonial dialogues.’ They support their position through a diverse lens that examines essential aspects of the visual dimensions of metal music: album artwork, clothing, film, sites, and activist practices.
