Synopsis

Book & CD Sampler. Continuing the massive, and massively acclaimed, Collector's Guide to Heavy Metal series, this volume weighs in at 3367 reviews from the decade that saw metal's second chart-topping golden age, a commercial renaissance that rivalled even the mighty 1980s. The '00s also witnessed metal's extensive splintering into sub-genres and niches previously unimaginable, all of which are reviewed and analysed here along with the '00s' immense explosion of death metal, black metal, grindcore, thrash, doom, power, progressive, traditional, stoner rock, metalcore and hair metal/hard rock. Martin Popoff and David Perri have reviewed the catalogues of the major '00s players alongside the more obscure, leaving no stone unturned as they mine for the best metal of the decade. In a decade that saw over 100 new metal releases a month, Popoff and Perri's monumental task of analysing and reviewing a major segment of these records, both chart-toppers and rarities alike, is presented in Volume 4, an incisive and witty tome filled with controversial opinion, '00s trivia, anecdotes and discussions of records that just aren't covered elsewhere. An essential encyclopaedia for the discerning metal fan, collector and obsessive alike! The exclusive full-length CD Sampler provided by Metal Blade Records graphically surveys the many styles metal in the '00s encompassed, through songs by bands such as Behemoth, Amon Amarth, Goatwhore, God Dethroned, Hail Of Bullets, The Crown, Winter Solstice, Hate Eternal, Psyopus, As I Lay Dying, Disillusion, The Black Dhalia Murder, Gorerotted and Fates Warning.
