| Summary |
Metallica is the "thinking man's" metal band and the headbanger's CNN. This book considers questions that philosophers have been pondering for ages, including: Does Metallica's music provide an Aristotelian catharsis or does it just make kids go postal? Can "Fade to Black" save you from suicide? Are we all in the "Sanitarium"? |
