About The Metalist

Built for Metalheads

The Metalist is an independent project focused on metal music discovery: a home for bands, producers, engineers, and fans to share releases, demos, and shows without getting lost in generic streaming platforms.

It is built and run by a single developer and metal fan. This page exists so you know there is a real person behind the site, and so you can easily find our privacy policy, terms, and contact details.
