Back in the ‘70s, heavy metal wasn’t just a genre of music. It was also a monthly graphic novel magazine

Heavy Metal came with a rock-heavy soundtrack that featured a varied lineup of artists — from Blue Oyster Cult and Black Sabbath (who contributed “Mob Rules” to one of the film’s highlights, a bloody battle scene), to Stevie Nicks and Journey.

The Heavy Metal' Soundtrack  boasted two songs with “heavy metal” in the title: a self-titled Sammy Hagar jam and Don Felder’s “Heavy Metal (Takin’ a Ride).”
The release of both DVD and CD were held up for 16 years because of the music rights.
