Hands down, my two favourite are:

https://olddisgruntledbastard.wordpress.com/
https://www.deathmetal.org/

Anyone know any other gems (especially if they led you to great albums you may not have heard otherwise)?

ODB's blog is good, but he only posts sporadically.

DMU was a useful resource in the 90's, but in more recent years it's become an alt-right cigar review site that shits on any metal released after 1994.

Hate Meditations is worth checking out:

I like Sea of Tranquility,  overkill reviews are good too.


https://www.angrymetalguy.com/

was the go to for a long time but last 2 years its turned into the Guardian of heavy metal..barely go on it anymore



I can't put up a link but my favourite on YouTube would be Simon @ Explosive Action ( Australia) , I could listen to him talk about Metal (mostly the extreme stuff) all day . He has a whole converted garage to house his music and movies collection.

Requiem Metal Podcast is pretty much the best thing going when it comes to the podcast side of things.
As for YouTube, Banger Tv is alright depending on who's reviewing the records. Metal School is a great channel too.

Dean Lamb of Archspire's YouTube channel is a great watch.

I didn't have "Only Fools and Horses reference in article detailing how shit Massacre are" on my bingo card for today  :laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:


I've mentioned it recently but the FM104 delivery from the Necrosphere dude is hard going.

The lad who writes Hate Meditations co-hosts a podcast called Necropolis which is very good.
