Hessian Studies Society: Study and Advocacy of Heavy Metal Culture and Music

Heavy metal music has remained proudly independent of popular music styles and has become increasingly complex, brave in its topics and imagery, and defiant in its assertion of its own values system. The Hessian Studies Society aims to study Hessian culture, promote it and defend it in the battleground of ideas that is modern society.
