Welcome...



Welcome to my blog!

Here I will compile all of my research for my academic dissertation.

My chosen subject, like it wasn't already obvious, is metal culture and its themes, identities and its global influences. My aim is to research these aspects of metal culture and produce my own Graphic Design projects that are influenced by this research.

I have chosen this topic due to a personal interest in the subject, and that I would like to know more about the music that has influenced my own lifestyle choices.

Women in Metal

'They have to scream a little louder to be heard.'
Does that mean that metal means so much more to women because of the fact that they are segregated?

'But the ladies' musical backgrounds and achievements often play second fiddle to their luminous cheekbones or dangerous curves.'
Similar things could be said for female FANS of metal - are they objectified due to their appearance because they are a lot rarer than male metalheads?
