Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The heavy metal beat goes on with the release of the second issue of Bob Nalbandian's legendary 1980s music fanzine The Headbanger! Relive those heady days of leather and denim as Nalbandian walks you through the smog of the Sunset Strip and into the clubs and arenas where bands like Motorhead, Krokus and Sabotage made heavy metal history. This faithful digital reproduction of the second issue — originally released in September 1982 — includes reviews of performances by Motorhead, Krokus, Scorpions, Dante Fox and Sabotage; commentary on the latest vinyl from Saxon, Raven and Judas Priest; a "Hot Tips" section with recaps of global heavy metal happenings; and rapid-fire reviews of breakout bands from Europe. Find all that — and much, much more — in the fanzine that helped put heavy metal on the rock 'n' roll map! “Over the years I've received tons of emails from people asking about The Headbanger and whether I ever plan to reprint the original issues,” Nalbandian says. "We want to transport readers back to the ‘true’ days of the early fanzines, a time when there was no such thing as ‘spell-check’ and tablet computers were the stuff of science fiction. Welcome to 1982 revisited!"
