Lingüa Brütallica - Episode 4: Researching Extreme Metal with Dr Rosemary Overell

Our fourth episode here involves a departure from our usual format by presenting an interview with lecturer in communications and media, Dr Rosemary (Rosie) Overell, in which we discuss her experience conducting research on the grindcore scenes of Melbourne (Australia) and Osaka (Japan). We share anecdotes about our experiences as participants and observers across the two scenes and highlight key differences in how extreme metal brutality is structured by different groups.
