Metal Evolution

Metal Evolution was originally a 2011 documentary series directed by Canadian anthropologist and film-maker Sam Dunn and director, producer and music supervisor Scot McFadyen about heavy metal subgenres, with new episodes airing every Friday at 10pm EST on MuchMore and Saturday at 10pm EST on VH1 Classic. Its origins come from Dunn's first documentary Metal: A Headbanger's Journey, which included the acclaimed "Heavy Metal Family Tree."
The series was broken down into episodes about a different piece of metal history. In 2014, an Extreme Metal episode was made, thanks to crowdsourcing contributors. Produced after the original series aired, the episode covered Florida Death Metal, Norwegian Black Metal, Grindcore, and other extreme subgenres. The episode was produced with the help of donations through IndieGoGo.
