The Magazine
"The Metal Observer" is one of the leading Hard Rock/Heavy Metal webzines, online since May 2000. We have an international staff of contributors, covering virtually everything in Metal!
There are no limits, if it is Melodic Rock or Grind or anything in between, if it has been released in 1348 or 2032, you can find it here - on "TMO"! Thousands of reviews, from million sellers to virtually unknown bands, from the Metal hotpoints of Sweden or the USA to Mongolia, Namibia and Cuba - hundreds of interviews, in-depth and beyond the usual stuff, live reviews, articles, thousands of links and mp3s available, so the whole spectrum. Plus one new contest every week, so take your chance and just enter!
