Lydia Catedral, Hong Kong Polytechnic University:
Kruk and Robertson have written a wonderfully approachable and empirically informed sociolinguistic book about metal music across Asia Pacific. Their work makes valuable contributions to both sociolinguistic scholarship and the study of metal, and its accessible writing style and clear explanations make it a solid introduction to either subject.
