Industrial Britain



Industrial 70s Britain

This point in time had a huge influences of the building of heavy metal.

The use of something that symbolises this time feels like it could be useful in the build of my album covers and help to give voice.

Throughout my own life I often felt that I have no been given a voice, and that certain elements of society have judged or tried to make me conform to a particular way of being. The working class at this time tried rise against the establishment and from this bands such as Black Sabbath rose. The influences of both the sounds but also feeling of frustration and aggression fed into the birth of heavy metal. In the 70s there was union strikes and people became frustrated and were fighting to be heard. The images below have been inspired by this research.
