The thread nobody asked for! Unsolicited trivia about my coming book "Medievalism, Popular Culture and Politics in Metal Music: The Case of Hispanic Epic Themes". Everything you did not want to know about the Metal Music Studies publication you were not waiting for (but are now!).
Book cover. In the background, a B/W close-up of a fully armoured medieval warrior with a nasal helmet with aventail holding a sword in his right hand, threatening the viever. On the top left corner, the author's name: "Amaranta Saguar García". In the bottom left corner, the book's title: "Medievalism, Popular Culture and Politics in Metal Music: The Case of Hispanic Epic Themes".
