(Now Playing) Heavy Metal Roadshow 1 of 4

For any metal fan growing up before widespread Internet access, fanzines were the bibles of underground music. Scene reports, in particular, were the vital feature that kept local scenes connected. VBS correspondent Iano Dovi brings the scene report into the digital age, scouring London, Stockholm, and Los Angles for a comprehensive survey of today’s heavy metal across the globe.
