Extreme Metal From NC/VA(Check your Bulletins!)

About Me

This site is here to expose signed/unsigned Extreme Metal Bands from NC and VA to each other as well as local venues in both areas.Also to metalheads across the map. I am planning on having music up as soon as i get permission from artists. There will be Interviews so if you want one here just ask, I will be more than happy to interview any bands. I will start adding local venues from both states as a means to bring NC venues together with VA artists and vice-versa. It will also serve to bring bands together for show swaps and split EP type situations. I am just getting Started so bear with for a bit. Trying to build up the friends list to give these acts as big of an audience as I possibly can. Tell some friends"So here's to Bringing Metal acts from across the border to new listeners everywhere!
Cheerz!
