The War According to Rock! #war

The impact of conflicts and the reality of the trenches translated into distortion and lyrics. More than just music, Rock and Metal act as a historical record and a tool for raising awareness about the human scars left by war. From the roots of Black Sabbath to the rawness of bands like Metallica and System of a Down, the focus is on analyzing how art processes trauma, loss, and politics, and who the true victims of war are.
