  • Best metal podcast out there

    Easily. Title says it all. The folks on the podcast are distinctive and full of character, the guests are fantastic, and the folks clearly care a lot about the music they talk about. If you want a metal podcast, it didn’t get much better then this.

  • Let me introduce you your new bunch of Metal friends. They're as Metal knowledgeable as they're fun. But best of all, they're passionate about the music they love. Sad thing is you'll only hear from them once a month, but hey, it'll be for a 4-hour show.

    I'm subscribed to a lot different Metal podcasts, but this is my favorite by far. Don't let the length of the episodes intimidate you, give it a shot and soon you'll be craving for more.

  • Worth the time.

    Most music podcasts that I’ve come across lack one of two things: quality or personality. Metalheads Podcast successfully maintains -blah blah blah- it’s awesome, listen to it.
