Scott, a senior lecturer in ethics at the University of Central Lancashire and a proud metalhead, said it was time to "recognise heavy metal's contribution to western society".
He said the metal scene was not the "teenage activity" worthy of ridicule some see it as, but instead a "barometer of what is happening at the extreme edges of political and youth cultures".
"It's a movement that maintains extremism in art and culture for its subversion, controversies and silliness," Scott said.

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts
