Heavy Metal and Disability
Intellect Books (Verlag)
978-1-78938-945-6 (ISBN)
Metal’s preoccupation with unleashing and controlling sensorial overload acts both as an analogue of neurodiversity and as a space in which those who are neurodivergent find ways to understand and leverage their sensory capacities. Metal offers potent resources for the self-understanding of people with disabilities. It does not necessarily mean that this potential is always explored or that metal scenes are hospitable to those with disabilities. This collection is disability-positive, validating people with disabilities as different but not damaged.
While metal scholars who contribute to this collection see metal as a space of possibility, in which dis/ability and other intersectional identities can be validated and understood, the collection does not imply that the possibilities that metal affords are always actualised. This collection situates itself in a wider struggle to open up metal, challenging its power structures; a struggle in which metal studies has played a significant part.
Jasmine Hazel Shadrack is an adjunct professor at the Don Wright School of Music Composition and Research, at Western University, Canada. She is also a musician, composer, disability advocate and an extreme metal performer. Keith Kahn-Harris is a sociologist and writer, based in London. He has been writing about metal since the 1990s, is the author of 'Extreme Metal: Music and Culture on the Edge' and co-editor of a number of collections.
