"All the darkness and anger that you've come to know and love and are ready to pass on." —Juxtapoz Art & Culture Magazine Online

A fun and educational way to experience hard rock, metal and Scnadinavian black metal." —LA Weekly
With all the fun of a heavy metal parking lot without the beer stains and moshing, this activity book for kids and adults is an entirely new take on the coloring book genre. Headbangers get the chance to color legends like Metallica, Danzig, and Pantera; help get Spinal Tap through a backstage maze; complete the Black Metal word scramble and hair metal crossword; and solve heavy metal Sudoku. The cover features lettering by text master Aaron Horkey and design by graphic icon Brent Rollins, and will be appreciated by anyone who loves to rock.
Aye Jay is the author of The Gangsta Rap Coloring Book and The Indie Rock Connect-the-Dots book. He lives in Chico, California. Andrew W. K. is a hard rock musician. He lives in Los Angeles.
