Do you have a question for us? Or do you want us to review and/or promote your music? Perhaps you'd like to participate in a giveaway, or even sponsor us? Don't hesitate to ask! You can expect an answer within 1 to 5 workdays.
We also answer on Facebook Messenger if you prefer communicating through there. Due to the high demand for reviews, we cannot always guarantee a reply to every submission, but we read everything we receive.
For those who follow the metal scene closely, there is always something new to discover when browsing through our review archives. From symphonic and melodic power metal to the darker edges of gothic and black metal, the range of sounds we cover reflects the diversity of the genre itself. Recent releases from both established Finnish acts and rising international bands have brought fresh energy to the scene, blending bombastic orchestrations with crushing riffs and soaring vocal melodies. Our writers take the time to explore each album's unique character, from the production quality to the songwriting depth, ensuring that every review captures what makes a record worth hearing.
Submissions from artists and labels are always welcome, as they form the lifeblood of what we do. Physical CDs remain the preferred format for our reviewing process, as they allow our writers to spend proper time with the music before forming their thoughts. Whether you represent a well-known name on a major label or an underground band pressing your own debut, we read every submission that comes our way. The response time typically falls within a few workdays, though during busier periods we may not be able to reply to every inquiry. Still, every package and message is opened and considered with genuine interest.
The magazine's warm, classic aesthetic mirrors the timeless quality of the music we champion. With its deep burgundy accents and gold-toned section banners, the site offers a comfortable reading experience that lets the content take center stage. Full-bleed photography and clean sans-serif typography create a straightforward, editorial feel reminiscent of printed music magazines from decades past. This design philosophy extends to how we present our reviews: no flashy distractions, just honest writing about the albums that move us. Whether you are a longtime fan of melodic metal or just discovering the genre, the archive holds something worth your time.
