A review by drmarti
Lords of Chaos: The Bloody Rise of the Satanic Metal Underground by Didrik Søderlind, Michael Moynihan

2.0

DNF - gave up about halfway through. Wish this had been more of a true music history of the whole movement and less just a recap of the story of Mayhem, which I already knew. Also felt like it gave too much uncritical airtime to Varg Vikernes and others discussing past crimes without remorse. The book also needs some editing/reorganization; there is a lot of repetition.
