Heavy Metal Islam is a 2008 non-fiction book by Mark LeVine, a professor of Middle East history.[1] LeVine details the growth of heavy metal music in the Middle Eastern countries Morocco, Egypt, Palestine, Lebanon, Iran and Pakistan as he travels within those countries for five years.[2] The book not only is just about his travels and heavy metal music, but was also meant as a promotional tool for his companion album.[3]
