Metal Club is a collection of music stores that support metal music and culture. We know that it is almost impossible to put all types of metal music under one Viking helmet but that is what we here at Metal Club headquarters are charged with doing. On this site you will find some of the latest news of the world on all types of metal music, courtesy of Decibel Magazine, along with a Store Locator so that you can shop locally to find and support your local metal music scene.

Just as importantly, you will find special releases made just for the metal community by these Metal Club stores. These special releases will be everything from live EPs, to special small run editions on vinyl, CD and box-sets made especially for metal fans, as well as free metal CD samplers and other cool promotional items.

Metal Club does not sell these special edition releases for the stores, nor will we provide the special promotional discs made for Metal Club stores directly to you, but you will be able to find your local Metal Club store using our handy-dandy store locator and support them individually either on-line or at their physical location (depending on the store). This means you will have to check with your local stores on all Metal Club products and promotions. We are simply here to help connect your local music store with you, the metal music fan.

IMPORTANT METAL CLUB DISCLAIMER: There are a lot of stores that participate in Metal Club listed on this site. These stores are all run INDEPENDENTLY of Metal Club, which means they aren’t run or influenced or told what to do by us here at Metal Club either. They have complete control over their stock, store policies and which promotions they participate in. Any piece (commercial or promotional) that we tell you about on this site is available at some stores, but other stores have probably chosen not to carry them, which is totally their prerogative. That’s why we tell you to be sure to CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL STORE. Being mentioned on this site should not be taken as a guarantee that something will be available at all stores listed on this site.
