about

So we love metal, and I grew up reading Hot Metal magazine. With its outrageously juvenile headlines, smut and sticker packs, it was a very poor primer in modern feminism, but an excellent source of fashion cliche and near fantasy lifestyle posters.

lyrics

It was ours and we knew it to be our own
From the pages of black
From the strands of wild hair
To stickers as currency
Steelworks skyline / David Campese, David Lee Roth
It was the world as we wanted it to be
Objects of cars on sunset strips
Objects of girls and women
Objects of jagged edged guitar
Cut grass concrete cold/Eddie Van Halen, Eddie would go
It was what taught us to desire and consume
Emblazoned t-shirt tribes-boys
Emblazoned raunchy slogans
Emblazoned ‘we are not you’
Zipper jacket ripped jeans/ Dave Mustaine, Boris Becker
It was what we needed before we could label our feelings, Essentially monochrome
It was a logical opposite, Before the spectrum of light, A struggle to forget
Hot metal! Sports metal! Taught me to believe
Hot metal! Sports metal! Tommy Lee, Brian Lara
Hot metal! Sports metal! Show me who to be!
Hot metal! Sports metal! Warwick Kappa, Mal Maninga
