Queerness in Heavy Metal Music: Metal Bent is an important addition to Metal Music Studies' commitment to challenging the perception of metal as inherently heteromasculinist through examining metal scenes as sites of potentialities and differing performativities. Metal Bent initiates an understanding of how these performativities may be interrogated in the context of sexuality. The groundwork undertaken here by Clifford-Napoleone may then yield greater plurality in future intersectional discussions of sexuality within metal scenes, practices and cultures. - Catherine Hoad, Macquarie University, Australia
