The Metal Project: Finding Heavy Metal songs about Metal since 2011.
Well I needed a hobby.
Once upon a time, way before Myspace and Youtube and Facebook, an aspiring young band would record a few songs onto a cassette tape, paste on a photocopied label and flog them at gigs. In time a vigorous tape-trading scene emerged, passing cassette from fan to fan. Through this, some bands went on to make a name for themselves. Others never got that call.
This post is dedicated to them.
Obviously the sound quality is going to be somewhat less than polished but hopefully we may just unearth a few gems. Enjoy.
