Frequently Asked Questions

How much do your metal music promotion services cost?

It's free to submit your track and have one of our team listen to see if it is a good fit for our metalhead audience. If we like the track, there's multiple options - we can feature the track on rotation in our New Metal Music playlist on Spotify, which is completely free! For bands more serious about getting more fans and followers, we offer a range of promotional services from social media boosts to full month-long promo campaign across audio, press, playlisting, social, digital media, video and more. Campaigns start at just $60!

Do you specialize in promoting specific metal genres?

We have successfully promoted metal bands of all genres, from Heavy Metal through to Progressive. For features on our own channels specifically we focus on promoting more aggressive metal music - death metal, technical death metal, melodic death metal, extreme metal, deathcore, metalcore and thrash. For metal music promotion campaigns beyond our channels (including Spotify Audio ads, Metal Website Banner Ads, Press/PR, Playlist Pitching and YouTube campaigns) we've run successful promotional campaigns for pretty much every metal music subgenre you could think of (and more besides!). As long as the music quality is high enough (and we only partner with metal bands where we think the quality is good enough), we back ourselves to get bands from all metal music subgenres exceptional results.

Do you work on promotion for any metal band?

No, we will only work on promotion for metal bands that we think are of a high enough quality and that we could find the right metal audience for. If you submit your band and don’t get a response, don’t be offended! We can only work with a small handful of metal bands at any one time, and so we can only pick those bands who we think will be the best fit and get the most value from our metal promotion services.

Can I just submit to the spotify metal playlist only?

Yes! We accept Spotify Metal Playlist submissions to our New Metal Music Spotify playlist, just click the “submit your band” button and you can submit details of your band so we can lookup your Spotify artist profile. Someone on our team will take the time to listen to your submission and if we like it, we’ll feature it in our metal playlist on Spotify!

Do you deal with death metal music promotion?

Of course! We have a real depth of experience in Death Metal music promotion and finding the right audience for extreme metal music in general. Death Metal is one of the main focuses for our own channels specifically and so Death Metal bands are eligible for our full suite of promotional services. So if you are a death metal band looking to get your music in front of more death metal fans, we are the right promotion agency for you!

Are you a metal music PR company?

We are way more than a metal music PR agency. Many Metal Music PR agencies will only offer press related services (pitching your metal music to publications to try and get you featured). We offer that, but we also offer a whole lot more, with a particular emphasis on digital ad campaigns so we can get your music in front of exactly the right metal music audience that's likely to become a fan of your music.

What makes you different to other metal music promoters?

We believe it’s the range and quality of the metal promotional services we offer. There are loads of metal PR agencies out there, but there isn’t anyone else in the metal music industry who has the experience and success that we have had with paid media campaigns to promote metal music. One thing to note though, we specialize exclusively in digital/online metal music promotion, so if you are looking for a traditional metal promoter (for gigs/live shows), then we aren’t the right agency for you.
