"Being a fan of metal is all about taking a side and defending it. Priest/Maiden. Metallica/Anthrax, Reign In Blood/South Of Heaven, the metal battles wage eternal. By pushing their own point of view, Abrams and Jenkins bring a very real and conversational feel to the book. It’s like a hardcover version of that friend you always argue with." - Iann Robinson/Crave Online
