[Commlist] New book: Heavy Metal and Disability

Intellect is pleased to share that /Heavy Metal and Disability: Crips, 
Crowds, and Cacophonies 
<https://www.intellectbooks.com/heavy-metal-and-disability>/, edited by Jasmine 
Hazel Shadrack and Keith Kahn-Harris, is out in hardback.

A groundbreaking collection that examines the relationship between heavy 
metal and disability. The authors, some of whom define themselves as 
disabled, discuss a wide range of issues, including how people with 
disabilities engage with metal as musicians, fans, and how heavy metal 
constructs the disabled body. 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.

Part of the Advances in Metal Music and Culture 
<https://www.intellectbooks.com/advances-in-metal-music-and-culture> series.
