About this app

Get the latest heavy metal and hard rock news from the best sites on the world wide web in one app, like Blabbermouth and MetalStorm.

This app was created for private use. But after being very happy with it publicly released on the Google Play Store. The main goal was to get a nice looking app with fast access to metal news without ads or other crap.

The app will be in constant development so if something is wrong or you want to add a site, drop me a message with the problem (on which page) and i will take a look into it.

If you want to support this app, a 'donate' version is available in the Google Play Store called Metal XTD. This eXTenDed version gets all the updates first and has some extra build in functions. And... you get a super hot red launcher icon so you can show your friends you support Metal ;)
