The editors and authors aim to contribute to a living, breathing, and expanding definition of extremity that helps us understand what we gain, or lose when we interact with it, create it, and share it with, or force it upon, others. The volume calls for the emergence of “extremity studies” as an area of perusal to help us navigate our current global condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1 - On Extremity: A Manifesto\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNelson Varas-Díaz, Niall Scott, and Bryan Bardine\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSOUNDS\u003c\/p\u003eChapter 2 - The Aesthetics of Extreme SoundsNiall Scott\u003cp\u003eChapter 3 - Essential Musicality: Extreme Music and the Sounds of Everyday Life\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoss Hagen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4 - Extremities within Extremity: Sisterhood as Strategies of Resistance in the UK Underground Metal Scene\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJasmine Hazel Shadrack\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5 - Voices for the Voiceless: Animal Rights and Extremity in Extreme Music\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEdward Banchs and Anna Chilewska\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6 - No Satisfaction: Aihiyō after The Rolling Stones\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobin Purves \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIMAGES AND WORDS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7 - Extremity – Art – Decoloniality: Lessons for Survival in the Work of Puerto Rican Artist Rafael Trelles\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNelson Varas-Díaz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8 - The Limits of Extremity: The Disappearance and Return of Extremity in Late Capitalism\u003cbr\u003eJason J.
