This project explores the intersection of metal music and the Christian faith, highlighting major European and Italian festivals as well as the daily lives of key figures in the Italian Christian metal scene.
Christian metal, also known as White Metal, is a form of heavy metal defined by lyrics inspired by Christianity and by the personal faith of the band members. Often, it is performed for Christian audiences and distributed through various religious networks.
White Metal is not a single musical style but rather an ideological umbrella encompassing almost every subgenre of heavy metal. Christian metal bands vary in their lyrical approach: some emphasize the positive aspects of faith, while others focus on the teachings of Christ. Metaphors are frequently used to convey messages subtly, and lyrical styles differ depending on culture, denomination, and country.
