Summary/Abstract: This article is an attempt at analyzing the language of journalists dealing with different types of metal music in the “Rock’N’Roll” magazine, which appeared in 1990-1991. The period after the transformation of the system in Poland is particularly interesting because of the development of music journalism, and the ”Rock’N’Roll” seems to be the bravest music magazine of that time. Cycles of articles, concert reviews, disc reviews, analysis of the phenomenon – all of them constitute a very intriguing picture of this period in the development of musical awareness of Polish heavy metal audience.
