Abstract

In his address, Dr. Harris attempts to reconsider the nature of metal’s transgression in a digitally abundant age, in which boundaries of the ‘sayable’ and the ‘doable’ are being continually challenged and transformed. His talk aims to question the role transgression plays in metal and its conceptual effectiveness when applying it to studies of metal music and its cultural practices.
