Welcome to the Metal Band Wiki!
There are 2,573 pages about bands and albums thus far.

Our goal is to have the most comprehensive Metal Band database, period. Other places, many really good bands do not qualify for inclusion, due to one or more of their suggested guidelines for acceptance. Why? Because they are "not famous enough".

Famous does not necessarily mean good. There's a ton of famous people that are known for nothing constructive. Alot of "popular" things are horrible. We do not rule talent by "chart sales". Multi-platinum awards do not equal talent.

Granted, we are not out to be a local band repository, but, if a band is good they deserve to be mentioned.

HERE you can:

  • Add your band and albums.
  • Help expand our growing metal band database by adding new bands.
  • Edit existing band and album entries.
  • Update articles keeping the data current.

The only music that matters here is Metal!

You will find a number of great death, thrash, speed, and heavy metal bands, albums, and profiles of their musicians. Included among the metal bands, there is also entries of other bands and people connected in one way or another to the metal bands listed as well.

If you wish not to have your images or credited text here, go to https://metalbandwiki.com/index.php?title=Mbw and please notify us and it will be removed.

Please feel free to browse the site, and if there is anything you can correct or contribute, we urge you to do so.

There is NO "file sharing" on this site!

We need more members to add articles and update current ones!

Please, do NOT "copy & paste" from other sources, and PLEASE do not "copy and paste" from here either!

NOTE!

There is no guarantee of the validity of info here. There is alot of out of date content, and a great deal of entries are not current. Simply, there are not enough editors here to keep it up to date. You CAN request an account and help out -> HERE! <- It may take a little while to reply, but we will get back to you.
