In recent days the city of Salzburg, Austria, has not had much to envy Book Los Angeles Del Infierno H. Hunter Thompson, of course after so many years and just the look is, savagery was gradually leaving behind and Heavy Metal to become the subject of analysis by brainy academics gathered in the first world congress on the genre, I think it came a little late to something more than a musical genre, is one of the most countercultural movements that changed way of seeing the world and the music industry in recent decades. Historically 
rebellion within societies is manifested in two ways, first, more pragmatic and consistent, which is through the systematic use of thought as opposed to the system set up by the union of elements and related individuals, to achieve change or removal from the second, the most naive and often, that is the selflessness of the individual dissatisfied, not responding to the canons of the society in which opting to develop but the margin through the abuse of illegal drugs, becoming a non-citizen of that social group that rejects.
