In Flanders fields surrounding the quiet Belgian town of Poperinge, a gentle breeze rustles the sheer endless acres of grain. It's right here, at the tail end of the 70's, that the new Maeke-Blyde concert hall sparks the fresh fire. Local youngsters can be found swaying their long hair like maniacs at live shows by Metallica, AC/DC, Slayer, Kiss, Van Halen and countless others. This is where the early heavy metal movement first plants it's foot firmly on the European mainland. An invasion that would settle itself for good!

This book recounts the coming of age of metal in West Flanders through never before published stories photos and memorabilia. Your backstage pass to golden times filled with riffs, rebelliousness and raw energy! 395 pages
