Post subject:  Metal's non-musical influences
It's interesting that as a musical genre, heavy metal has a lot of non-musical influences:

1. Literary:
- HP Lovecraft
- Edgar Allen Poe
- J.R. Tolkein

2. Movie
- Any Horror movie.

3. History
- War
- Politics

4. Mythology
- Occult
- Satanism
- Paganism
- Norse mythology


I don't think other genres are so influenced by such a myriad of non-musical elements.

My coworker and I thought it'd be funny to write a Homer-inspired, Beastie Boys-style concept album called the Illiniad.
