Description
Electric Wizards: A Tapestry of Heavy Music from 1968 to the Present A comprehensive exploration of the evolution and diversity of heavy music, tracing its development from the Beatles' "Helter Skelter" to the vibrant modern underground. This book delves into the genre-defying world of heavy metal, post-punk, industrial, grunge, stoner rock, and other styles, highlighting key figures and moments that have shaped the sound. From the lysergic blunt trauma of Blue Cheer to the locked grooves of Funkadelic, Electric Wizards examines how each successive phase of heavy music was forged by what came before. The book sheds light on those who introduced something fresh and exciting into this elemental tradition, whether by design, accident, or sheer chance. By weaving together a rich and eclectic lineage, Electric Wizards presents an entirely new tapestry of heavy music, one that extends far beyond the usual boundaries of heavy rock or heavy metal.
