Hard Rock, Heavy Metal and More…

While Metal tends to be the genre that gets most of our coverage we are committed to reporting on music that is “heavy” regardless of the style and origin. There is a lot of heavy electronic, hip hop, indie and other styles of music that Brutal Planet Magazine will cover. Heavy knows no boundaries.
