The anti-news site
Loud opinions, louder riffs.
One voice, one unfiltered opinion on heavy metal and hard rock. No breaking news, no listicles. Just depth, guitar love, and a European perspective the big American sites will never give you.
Yoth Iria — The Blind Eye of Antichrist (Official Video)
Yoth Iria back with their Metal Blade debut. The Magus has not softened a single edge in thirty years. Greek black metal is not a legacy genre. It is a living scene, and this track is the proof.

DEEP DIVE Hypostasis. The Greek prog band that disappeared for eight years and came back swinging.
Athens four-piece returns from an eight-year silence with Mirror, the second single off their debut album. Production this clean has no business sounding this dark.

DEEP DIVE Silencer. The Swedish duo that invented depressive suicidal black metal and then disappeared.
Two men. One album. A vocal performance so unhinged that people still debate whether the singer is even a real person. Silencer's Death - Pierce Me created a subgenre and destroyed its makers in the process.

RIFF POST 15 metal riffs every beginner should learn first
Fifteen riffs. Five minutes. Tabs on screen. From Sabbath to Annihilator, these are the riffs that turn a beginner into a metalhead with a guitar.

DEEP DIVE Black Oak County. Misprint.
Danish hard rock that hits like a freight train and nobody outside Scandinavia is paying attention. Black Oak County's fourth album is the loudest argument for Denmark as a rock country.

OPINION Support Acts Deserve Better Sound. Always.
The headliner sounds like god and the support sounds like a tin bucket. That's a choice, not a budget. And it's time we stopped pretending otherwise.

DEEP DIVE Doodseskader. The Change Is Me.
A mate at the bar pushed Doodseskader into my hands. Two Belgians from Ghent making the heaviest, ugliest, most uncompromising sound coming out of Europe right now.

Four formats.
Zero filler.
No listicles. No hot takes for clicks. Every piece serves one purpose: to make you feel something about the music that matters.
Daily. One YouTube link, max five sentences. Like sending a mate a video with one line: "Listen to this."
Weekly. Why does this riff work? Technical enough to satisfy, passionate enough to feel.
Weekly. A hill to die on. No "both sides", no diplomatic hedge. Full conviction, beer in hand.
Weekly. A European band or album that deserved more. The festival campsite at sunrise. Reflective, personal.
A different kind of
metal site.
The biggest metal sites chase breaking news and viral clicks. Fair enough. That's their game. But it leaves a gap for the metalhead who wants to actually sit down and read something with depth.
Metalheadrock fills that gap. One personal voice instead of an anonymous team. A European lens on a scene that's too often told from across the Atlantic. Content that's still worth reading next week.
- European perspective on festivals, bands, and scenes
- Signature formats you won't find elsewhere
- Written for the 35+ generation that still buys vinyl

I wanted a site that sounds like the conversations I have after shows.
Every English-language metal site sounds the same. Anonymous writers. Breaking news nobody asked for. I got tired of reading content that felt like it was written by an algorithm.
This is the one you actually want to read. With your morning coffee or your evening beer. Wacken, Graspop, Hellfest, Roadburn. Here, those aren't footnotes. They're the main stage.
One metalhead. No editorial board. No algorithm. No sponsor telling me what to write. Just honest words about music that still gives me goosebumps after thirty years.
