Here at Revolver, we're all about celebrating heavy metal not just as a badass style of music but also a hard-fighting, live-loud, never-surrender attitude. The four cover artists of our new Fall Issue — Ozzy Osbourne, Dave Mustaine, Lamb of God and Lorna Shore — embody that spirit like few others, consistently battling against the odds, coming back from major setbacks and, in some cases, defying death itself.
You can pre-order the magazine now along with special limited-edition collector's bundles, featuring exclusive vinyl, shirts, art prints and more, at our shop.
