Cemetery Gates 
Saints and Survivors of the Heavy Metal Scene

Cemetery Gates takes you inside the minds of the most twisted icons of heavy metal — including Ozzy Osbourne, Axl Rose, Nikki Sixx, Trent Reznor, Peter Steele, Dimebag Darrell, Cliff Burton, Layne Stayley and John Bonham. Whatever their deadly sin, these prodigiously talented musicians haveall come dangerously close to the edge. Cemetery Gates is the ultimate tribute to the stoical survivors who dragged themselves back from the abyss — as well as the sainted icons who weren’t so lucky. The likes of Dio and Dimebag may be gone, but this riotous epitaph — to men who’ve lived every day as if it was their last — ensures they’ll never be forgotten.
