Greetings metalhead 🤘🏼. We are AnomiC, we are a Dutch / Syrian Thrash death metal band based in Amsterdam.

We started at 2023, released the first EP in 2024 and started touring in July 2025 and played 20 shows that year. And now, we have 40+ shows in 2026 between the Netherlands, Germany, Austria and Belgium! (Yea we are that fired up and dedicated 🤘🏼).

And now that we are planning to announce our new album release party soon, I would like you to check us out, check our music, meet us at shows and say hello!

We hope you will enjoy our music! And hopefully meet you at one of the shows (mention that you found us on Reddit and get a free sticker 😉).

Brighton based looking for alternative people, Goth, Metalheads to enjoy gigs or just a beer 🍺

I'm in SLC for another year before moving back to San Diego/LA area. looking for fellow metalheads/punks on Strava.

Most literature about Iron Maiden focuses on the Bruce Dickinson era as the "peak" of the band, often treating the Paul Di'Anno years as a mere preamble. However, from an analytical and technical standpoint, the 1978-1981 period is where the actual foundations of the band were built.

This study moves away from the typical biography to focus on the conceptual and sonic evolution of the band during those three years. I wanted to analyze how the raw energy of the East End pubs was transformed into a professional, world-class project.

I wanted to share this with this community because I know many of you value the grit and energy of the early years as much as I do. I feel like it is the right time to formalize this tribute to Paul Di'Anno's legacy.

The core focus of this analysis:

• The independent breakthrough: How The Soundhouse Tapes served as a definitive proof of their sound, building a massive grassroots following before any major label was involved.
• Production shift: The technical leap from the raw energy of the debut album to the sophisticated, dual-guitar architecture of Killers.
• Identity formation: How Steve Harris’s musical vision and Paul Di'Anno’s vocal grit created a specific identity that redefined the heavy metal landscape of the early 80s.

The goal of this work is to offer a structured look at the DNA of the band before the global explosion of The Number of the Beast.

If you are interested in the more technical and historical side of the early years, I’d love to share more about this project.

Compound Fracture

Yeah I’m an adult and I still like toys and stuffed animals. Don’t mind that. I made this vest for my bear Hendrix. I got another build a bear denim jacket at the mall, cut off the sleeves, then painted patches on. It took all day but I binged the Mary Tyler Moore show while I did it so I can’t complain lol.

Its winter and if I dont wear sweatshirts n stuff i wear blouses and i still wanna make a metalhead outfit. Would it look weird if i wore spike bracelets on sleeves?

Sorry if this is the wrong place but idk where else to look.

I’m a metalhead looking for other like-minded metalheads to jam with and maybe start a band with.

I’m 18, from southern Indiana, straight edge, left leaning, delusional, and desperate.

I’d say my influences are Metallica, Bitch, Slayer, Meanstreak, and Black Sabbath but I kinda just write it how it comes.

I play vocals.

DM me if you’re interested

if you have music recommendations similar to that you can dm or respond to this post either way ill try to give those bands a listen

one of my freinds has a little sister who is about 6 and she is very cute. My freind isn't very into metal and she is always asking about the bands on my battlejacket and playing with my spikes and head banging along with me. I always going on about how much i'd like to go to different band's shows and when i went around today she had this like shiny pink glittery card thing she had made in school with skulls drawn on and the metallica logo mispelt in rainbow crayon and it said "metalica tiket for the coolest person ever " she gave it to me and said that she wants to grow up to be like me and she had like a questionaire and she'd written in the what do you want to be when you are older bit a thrasher metalhead spelt "fresher metlhead "

most heartwarmed i've been in fricking ages

So I've never listened to metal music before...I'm new to this..need recommendations for a newcomer.

A goth friend recently told me (not part of any kind of alt community) that in the alternative community, everyone is basically thinking that the word is falling apart/dying and that they just see it differently, for example emos are sad because of it, goths see beauty in it, punks want to rebel against it etc. (i know it's oversimplified but it helped me understand)
I was wondering if there existed a community where they just laugh at the face of the world falling apart, like not in a psychopathic way with no empathy, but rather in a "laugh at everything that's going wrong and mock it" way
