A study of heavy-metal music and its performers, and its message about American adolescents.

Heavy metal is a violent, head-bashing music complete, in its live performances, with its own arena of rage and celebration, the mosh pit. It is a music in the red corner of society, loud, angry, and, to a well-tuned ear, practically intolerable. And yet, the art form radiates a message about American adolescents well worth examining and comprehend

Jeffrey Jensen Arnett is associate professor of human development and family studies at the University of Missouri at Columbia.
