Description
For 25 years, Norway's Slayer Mag has published the gospel of black metal and death metal, combining eye-ripping graphics, brutally honest writing and relentless off-beat humour. With this anthology-cum-memoir, editor Jon 'Metalion' Kristiansen unfolds the extreme highs and lows of a life lived for heavy metal - at the expense of everything else. In addition to rare archival material unseen in decades, Metalion includes exclusive interviews and artwork, including historical photographs and never-before-seen portrait photography by Kristiansen himself.
