Metal journalists and media pros

Use Groover to send your tracks directly to metal journalists worldwide. Browse journalists by subgenre focus, select the ones that match your style (heavy metal, death metal, black metal, etc.), and submit your music. You get guaranteed feedback within 7 days or your credits back.

Metal journalists want professional recordings, clear artist info, and music that fits their coverage. They look for originality within your subgenre, strong songwriting, and quality production. Include context about your band, influences, and what makes your approach to thrash metal, doom metal, or progressive metal unique.

Metal has a dedicated global community that relies on specialized media. Journalists help fans discover new bands across subgenres from melodic death metal to stoner doom. Coverage in respected metal outlets builds credibility, reaches passionate listeners, and can open doors to tours, festivals, and label deals.

Target journalists who actually cover your specific metal subgenre. Send high-quality recordings with professional presentation. Write a concise pitch that explains your sound, influences, and story. Show you understand their publication and why your music fits. Follow up professionally and build relationships over time.

On Groover, every journalist responds within 7 days. Feedback ranges from constructive criticism to full reviews, interviews, or premiere features. Not every submission leads to coverage, but you always get a response. Building media relationships takes time, so pitch consistently and professionally to journalists covering your style.
