Susana González-Martínez investigates feminist ideologies in metal music and demonstrates techniques of socio-political resistance for usage in real communities and in daily life.

This book invites a multidimensional appreciation of the artistic phenomenon of feminist metal. It sheds light on feminist artistic practices emerging from the margins of music scenes, highlighting their artistic, social, and pedagogical contributions to metal cultures and communities, to feminisms in general, and to the educational sphere. It therefore places the voices and wisdom of underground artists at the center of discussions of feminist art, social psychology, and critical and restorative feminist pedagogies. In short, it shows what feminist metal teaches us - its strategies, ways of doing, and resistance techniques - and how we can apply them in classrooms and socio-community interventions to address vital socio-political issues. Feminist metal can foster people's critical understanding of their realities, provide them with techniques and tools to navigate daily life challenges, and enable them to contribute positively to their environments and communities, fostering a more livable world for all.
