Details

• Release Year: 2011
• Genre: Documentary
• Plot: Metal Evolution is the biggest, most comprehensive documentary series ever made on the history of heavy metal and hard rock. This 11-episode series is based on the groundbreaking and much-debated 'Heavy Metal Family Tree' - a 26 sub-genre genealogical chart that details the extensive and complex lineage of heavy metal - from Early Rock, Shock Rock and Thrash to Progressive Metal, Grunge and Metal.; ; Using this chart as his road map, our host - metal-head turned anthropologist Sam Dunn - crisscrosses the globe exploring the history of the genre throughout its 40-year lifespan. From the streets of England to bars on Sunset Strip, and beer-soaked festivals of Germany to soccer stadiums in Chile, Dunn examines the pioneers of Brittish and American hard rock - as well as the modern-day metal luminaries that keep it alive today.; ; Featuring interviews with more than 300 of the genre's most revered artists, producers and experts, Metal Evolution is everything you ever wanted to know about metal. And then some.
