The invention of RSS has made browsing much easier. Instead of surfing to dozens of sites, you can aggregate them together in one place. Here are some of my favorite heavy metal sites, listed in alphabetical order. They include traditional blogs, general metal sites and news feeds. If there's a heavy metal blog you think should be on this list, send me an email. And while you're at it, add our RSS feed to your aggregator!
