Heaviness in Metal Music investigates the origins and nature of heaviness, and uses heaviness as a lens to understand the history of the metal genre. It overturns conventional thinking about how the genre "left the blues behind" by showing how much of the genre's ideology and direction of later development was shaped by the highly racialized conditions of its emergence from the blues in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
