Description
Book SynopsisThis book looks at how American rap/metal has engaged with America's defining role in the world after the Cold War. It offers a highly original approach in relating rap/metal to critical theories of economy and culture and introduces a new method of cultural analysis based on theories of negativity and expenditure.
Trade ReviewGreat Satan's Rage is a cogently argued and meticulously researched book that authoritatively weaves a dazzling array of ideas and theorists. As such, it makes an important contribution to the study of popular music within a social, political and economic context, and suggests that extreme music still has much to rage against., Lee Barron, The French Journal of Popular Music Studies Volume ! no 9-2 -- .
