| Abstract | "In 1985, the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC), led by "Washington Wives" Tipper Gore and Susan Baker, conducted a moral and legal crusade against the Filthy Fifteen, a list of songs they found to be objectionable from the likes of AC/DC, Judas Priest, Def Leppard, Twisted Sister, and Mötley Crüe. Rock of Pages identifies how the "dangerous" heavy metal of the 1980s can be analyzed through literary criticism, how heavy metal helps us understand what's dangerous about literature, and why this matters"-- Provided by publisher. |
