SynopsisA no-holds-barred history of Satanism, from Old Testament lore through to the 21st century. Revised and updated with devilish new material. Macabre media and rock music expert Baddeley charts humanity s darkest faith, Satanism, from its early perversion of Christian rituals and the high-society sinners of the naughty nineties to the great beast Aleister Crowley, and latterly, the black- and death-metal bands who fuel modern anxieties about the occult. Via exclusive candid interviews and sumptuously Satanic stills, Lucifer Rising reveals the beliefs, activities and individuals behind the present-day media panic., It s only natural that rock and roll 'the devil s music' and Satanism should be intimately linked. Lucifer Rising explores this unique cultural confluence. Divided into three parts, the book first traces the history of Satanism, from the birth of the Black Mass through the fashionable sinners of the Hellfire Club. The second section examines Satanism in the 20th century, including Aleister Crowley, the formation of the Church of Satan, the Manson Family, and the rise of occult-influenced bands like Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. The book s third part looks at the new waves of Thrash Metal, Death Metal, and the Scandinavian Black Metal scene; the murder case surrounding the band Burzum; the neo-Nazi element; and the religious right s courtroom pursuit of heavy metal. Lavishly illustrated throughout with graphics, medieval woodcarvings, and stunning photographs, the book also contains entertainingly cynical comment from Anton LaVey, in one of his last in-depth interviews.
