A collector-focused map to hard rock and metal beyond the genre’s early canon
Silk & Steel approaches hard rock and metal through the practical lens of collecting and musical discovery. Timothy P. Dyson concentrates on the genre’s more recent quarter-century, which the book argues has received less documentation than metal’s formative years. Its stated purpose is to help collectors revisit established bands while expanding their listening with additional artists and recordings. With that dual emphasis, the guidebook treats a music collection as an evolving record of both longtime favorites and new finds, anchored in rock and metal’s continuing development.
Based on publisher information and book metadata.
The first 25 years of metal were glorious and well documented. The last 25 years of metal were triumphant and victorious - only no one knew it.
This book will serve as a guide to righting that injustice and will help music collectors in rediscovering old bands while discovering new music to add to the soundtrack of their lives.
