The pre-sale for the collective The Story of 5 Great Metal Bands from Quebec has started!
The pre-sale is here : https://fr.ulule.com/bd-l-histoire-de-5-grands-groupes-metal-du-quebec/preview/
From its inception, heavy metal music has been polarizing. The most naive believed this musical movement would only last a short time, thinking it was just a trend or a phase. Over 50 years after the arrival of Black Sabbath, it’s clear that metal is here to stay. But how is it possible for such a marginal and brutal music style to endure without the support of radio stations and awards shows? The answer lies in the loyalty of its fans and the intense passion of its artists, worldwide.
In the metal world, Quebec is not to be outdone. Quite the opposite! Many pioneers who paved the metal path here have had an influence far beyond our borders.
This album presents the story of five legendary Quebec bands that have had extraordinary careers. The narrative takes us behind the scenes of this culture, transcending darkness and chaos, destruction and death, to reveal its human side. We discover the “Spinal Tap” moments these bands have lived through, from rehearsal spaces to international tours, as well as the struggles and hurdles overcome thanks to the power of their passion.
The comic artists involved in this documentary project offer us immersive journeys into the world of Voivod, Gorguts, Anonymus, Despised Icon, and Forteresse, as well as the pioneers of Quebec’s counterculture, the band Aut’Chose. Each of these stories is brought to life by Félix B. Desfossés, an author passionate about the history of music from here.
