Welcome to the site. Internet is full of metalzines and Black Metal zines and blogs and stuff. I just decided to make my own version of the old familiar formula. Here the focus is on new bands. Mainly promotion and useful links. I've been rolling this idea in my head since past winter (it's summer now in Northern Hemisphere). Black Metal is thing that fills my days so just out of passion for it I decided to create one more webzine into www cyber space.
At this starting point here's only little to see. The plan is to grow this thing bit by bit in my free time so here's going to be links to majority of Black Metal record labels, comprehensive list of upcoming releases, probably some advertising or marketplace for demos and albums and so on. And I'm trying to find out new ways to get people's attention to the new bands out there in the endless sea of underground scene. Here's no limits by different sub genres. I'd say anything between Motörhead and Carach Angren goes as long as it is Black Metal. If lyrics contain any jesus or allah or whatever crap supporting it is not Black Metal and so not belonging here.
In Black Metal scene people often use to ponder one's values. It would be nice diplomatic hippie sellout thing to say this website is free from ideologies. It is not. This site is very much against monotheistic religions, thank you.
If you want promotion for your band/label/distro or you would like to write album reviews etc take contact:
