Open Metalcast

First off, congratulations on making it to 2017. :)

We decided for this episode to just shut up and announce the song titles at the end of the show. That way we can let the music speak for itself. So you'll hear some great music from Wasted Heroes, Digger, Muldjord, Stellarvore, Zombie Destrüktion, Nimrud, Black Autumn, and Pressor. Definitely check this out and kick off 2017 with some of the best Creative Commons metal the net has to offer.

Please support the bands in this show! Buy a T-Shirt, buy an album, head to the shows, or [FUNNY]. Whatever you can do to help these bands keep making music, please do it!

It doesn't feel like the end of 2016 is upon us. It also doesn't feel like this should be the last regular episode of 2016. Yet, here we are.. But we're going out with style, with brand new music from Dejadeath, Agónica, and Minenwerfer. We also have tracks from Ishmael, Silent Path, Last Dive, Dehumanizing Process, and an ear-worm from Martes Mártir. And while we bid a farewell to 2016 we'll be back first-thing in the new year with more Creative Commons Metal Music to blast your ear-holes into the new year.

We're coming up on the Thanksgiving holiday here in the USA and I wanted to take a moment to thank you for listening to this humble podcast of Creative Commons Metal Music. It's a privilege to bring you this episode every couple of weeks and though some episodes take a little more to put together than others, seeing folks download the episode warms my heart. We have a great episode lined up with new music from the upcoming Sonus Mortis album, as well as music from Æons Collide, Effigy, Monster Coyote, Neila, PhaZer, Shady Bliss and Seal of Beleth. It's an episode you won't want to miss.

Please support the bands in this show! Buy a T-Shirt, buy an album, head to the shows, or thank them for making their music Creative Commons Licensed. Whatever you can do to help these bands keep making music, please do it!

If you're even remotely aware of a country called the United States of America you'll no-doubt know that November 8th is our election day. We've had a barrage of campaign calls from celebrities who likely would never call me otherwise (Seriously, lose my phone number). We've also had non-stop election coverage in every medium known to man (I think they're even using the Rosetta stone to craft messages for any voters who might only read hieroglyphs). Whatever your political stripe, denomination, or leaning: please vote if you can.

Regardless, here's 49 minutes of the best Creative Commons Licensed Music as a (temporary) respite from the United States of America's political machinations.

V.O.T.E.: Very Over This Election.

Here on the 140th episode of Open Metalcast we invoke the spirit of social media and implore you to share this episode as widely as possible with your friends and networks. You're lovely people and I adore each and every one that downloads this episode. But I'm sure there's someone in your circle of friends that might like this episode as well. And what better way to tell them about this show than by sharing this episode with them? That's one of the tenets of the Creative Commons License: Sharing. So share the goodness of bands like Sonder, Helix Nebula, Vampire Squid, Anagnorisis, Dioivo, We Exist Even Dead, Manic Adrift, and Spiral with your friends. And tell them to reshare this episode. Much like the tape-trading networks of old we can (legally) get the word out about these bands instead of keeping them all to ourselves. Thank you!
