Une Dose 2 Metal

Season 4 Episode 6: UD2M: Africa, The Last Frontier of Metal

"I just want to be important, a legend. People will talk about Gorofest and Goro, and they'll say there was a guy in Mozambique who fought for metal." A Dose 2 Metal explores the African metal scene, and more specifically South Africa, home to Gorofest, the first metal festival open to all Southern African countries. During the 2015 edition, 300 people attended concerts by bands from South Africa, Botswana, Angola, and Mozambique, all sharing one common goal: to showcase their country's metal scene. The bands take turns sharing their love for metal, the challenges of making a living from it, the often delicate reception of its imagery on such a continent, but also its unifying role in a post-apartheid society. An original, unique, and therefore very interesting topic!
