Legendary metal label, Metal Blade Records has announced details for Swing of the Blade: More Stories from Metal Blade Records
The new release is the follow-up to Brian Slagel’s critically acclaimed 2017 book, For the Sake of Heaviness, which delivered a compelling inside look at how a metal-obsessed California teen built Metal Blade Records into the preeminent international home of heavy music.
The book offers fans more anecdotes, more bands, and more of Slagel’s musical wisdom. Featuring a foreword by Slayer’s Kerry King, and is described as part memoir, part music-business primer, and all metal – delving deep into scenes and bands that fans worldwide obsess about.
Slagel serves up more of his favorite memories about iconic musicians and events, and delves into even greater detail about his long and ongoing relationships with Metallica, Armored Saint, King Diamond and other heavyweights.
In the coming weeks, Metal Blade Records will be launching their own exclusive pre-order bundle that will include a bookmark, patch, 40th anniversary medal, and signed bookplate, while supplies last! Pre-order your copy here.
