Welcome to the Atlanta Heavy Music tribe. I started this thing because one of my favorite things in life is going to a good, heavy music show. You'll see me using the generic "heavy music" a lot because I love heavy music across all genres. I fucking hate people who spend more time trying to pigeonhole and put down other people's taste in music than they do getting into the music the love and having a good time.

Anyway, hopefully this tribe will help people more fully enjoy the growing heavy music scene in this city. I don't know about you, but I'm sick of missing a lot of good shows because I didn't hear about them amidst everyone going on about the major players like Slayer. Don't get me wrong...I fucking love Slayer...but I'd rather be hearing more about the lower rungs of heavy music...the local, the unsigned, and the up and coming.
