A half-blind refugee who crossed Soviet lines as a child helped invent "heavy metal" with three words born from a thunderstorm. Twenty-five million records sold. Rival biker gangs declared truces just to hear them. Then the immigrant discipline that forged their sound became the weapon that destroyed them. Nine fake bands simultaneously stealing their name. A federal lawsuit just to prove they existed. Their freedom anthem collapsed under iron control. This is the rise and fall of Steppenwolf.
