Description This chapter highlights the dual post-socialist social processes in Eastern Europe of the secularization of culture and the deprivatization of religion. These dueling identities are at the core of Eastern Europe’s culture clash. In particular, the study focuses on the conflict between conservative religious forces and the heavy metal subculture over the public staging of large heavy metal music festivals in Slovakia.
