About this listen
Heavy metal is more than just music. It’s a way of structuring art.
In Episode 0, I introduce the critical framework behind Heavy as Film: a cross-medium functional and structural definition of heavy metal as a mode of art that applies to both cinema and music. I discuss defining metal by what it does and how it’s structured to do this, metal versus heaviness, the real role of aesthetics in metal, and establish the foundational principles that will be used to build the heavy metal cinema canon throughout the series.
