The Metal Project: One Thousand Songs

The Metal Project - my mission to track down every Youtube song that has "Metal" in the title.

  Since today marks the point where my project hits the 1K mark I thought I'd take it up a notch. Every single one of these songs is not just about Metal but about Heavy Metal. 
  Hope you find something you like.

And finally, after a year and a half and well over a hundred posts,
 it seems only fitting that I hit the 1000 song mark with...

Metal - Heavy Metal (Australia 2013)

Honour to: FallenAngel333GR

 I started this project on a whim back in January 2012 and honestly did not expect to find as much good music as I did.  Credit is due to the Metal fans who dug out their Cds and old vinyl and put it up for others to enjoy. And of course to the bands who keep the faith.

 I'm not even close to finishing this quest. Hope some of you are here to see this project get past 2000 songs.

That's all folks.
