A metalhead’s summer reading list

There’s a bunch of sturm und drang that comes with being a metal fan; and when fans aren’t being brutalized at a show, cracking open a book can be pretty metal, too. What’s more hardcore than the apocalyptic angst of Nietzche or Dante? “God is dead?” That’s some intense shit.
