Passport to Hell: Critical Studies on Peruvian Metal unveils the vibrant and thriving world of Peruvian metal. As the first of its kind, this book brings together a collection of Peruvian scholars, providing a long-overdue spotlight on a musical realm often overlooked in the international conversation.This comprehensive work offers a critical examination of Peruvian metal, challenging preconceived, universal notions regarding the nature of metal and stressing the uniqueness of the local scenes that have received and transformed the sounds and cultures of the global north to make them their own. This book expands the boundaries of metal scholarship by showcasing the connection between world metal narratives and the distinctive social fabric of Peru by giving voice to the identity, resistance, and cultural expressions in the metal world. It offers an invitation to discover a world that has long been marginalized, elevating Peruvian metal to its rightful place in the international conversation and celebrating the resilience and creativity of its artists.
