METAL, first and foremost! Then the usual...sex, drugs & metal. j/k! Well, one of them I'm kidding on, kinda, maybe a little, oh never mind. lol
Hmmm, let's put down a few things I love or love doing: going to metal shows in and around Texas and meeting the bands. I'm an animal lover with my favorites being cats & snakes. I think I'd probably lose it if I were to ever witness anyone abusing an animal...too bad for them is all I have to say. Running my webzine is important to me, it helps me to express my love for all things Metal. I like camping, fishing, the beach, thunderstorms & lightening storms, visiting and hanging out in out of the way cemetaries (with or without someone with me..it's al the same) dark dreary damp days (I actually get energized by this), the smell of rain and fresh cut grass, baby puppies and kittens, Web Design & Computer Graphics, Harley Davidsons, Doing Tattoo & Body Piercing (I don't really do this anymore, no time), Collecting Metal CD's, Pissing off my neighbors by cranking the stereo (I can't help it), studying and practicing the art and nature of hoodoo and the occult.
Things I don't like:
People being mean to other people or animals, which is actually easlily fixed...just don't know anyone. lol
The sun shining while it's raining, it's just WRONG. Stepping in my neighbors dog shit because he thinks my flower gardens are litter boxes. Can't stand C&W or Rap, but most people already know this. Mankind in general, the whole world has gone to shit.
I am in love with Nature itself. I love practicing and studying hoodoo, and I love learning about new herbs and how to work with them. Be assured, this is NOT a hobby.
Christopher Walken said it best in The Prophecy - "Humans are no more than talking monkeys"...

METAL COVEN WEBZINE is a Texas based online Underground Metal & Heavy Metal Magazine that was founded in October 2000. What started as a hobby with only 3 people on the entire staff, no support from any Record Label of any kind, and doing album reviews from purchases we bought from our own pockets (or already owned in our own personal CD collections) has now turned into a full blown, full time adventure with 13+ writers, interviewers and contributors from all corners of the earth, along with the support of nearly 100 Metal (many major) Record Labels and literally thousands of bands and fans from all over the world.
METAL COVEN WEBZINE has proudly grown in the past few years to being one of the most popular and most read Heavy Metal Online Magazines around today, and we show absolutely NO sign of stopping anytime soon, as we are extremely dedicated to our love for all things METAL. Our goal has always been to provide our fans and readers excellent and honest album reviews, interesting, informative and at times extremely funny band Interviews, providing bands with their own discussion forums to stay in contact with all their fans (at no charge, might we add!), the hottest metal chicks around, the latest and most updated news and gossip around, and MANY more things!
The FIRST and ORIGINAL Metal Coven! When the name METAL COVEN was first secured back in the late 1990s there were no other Metal Coven names to be found anywhere on the internet. Since then, do a search on Google and see how many appear. From the very beginning there have been many out there who have tried to imitate us. Nevertheless, those imitators have never been able to duplicate the trueness and dedication that is METAL COVEN WEBZINE.
MCW is dedicated to helping support metal bands from all around, including Death Metal, Black Metal, Thrash, Goth Metal, Doom, Power Metal, Progressive...to a never ending list of other genres, as well as all the wonderful Record Labels we work with on a daily basis. ALL OF YOU KICK ASS!!!
If by chance you are in a band (or record label with a metal band roster for that matter) and none of your material (or band roster) has been written or reviewed by METAL COVEN WEBZINE then what are you waiting for??? Get it to us! Seriously, this is what we do, and we do it well, so if you're wanting to be seen and praised over, then get those promos sent to our official mailing address:
PROMO PACKS SHOULD BE SENT TO: Metal Coven Webzine
P.O. Box - 580326
Houston, Texas 77258
USA
Metal Coven and its staff would like to wish ALL of you the best at everything you want to achieve in life!

Who I'd like to meet: More Metal bands!! I'd love to meet the dudes from Rotting Christ, Samael, Summoning, Amon Amarth, Candlemass, Dark Tranquillity, Hyposcrisy...you know the drill. Seriously, I'll have to think about this more.
Hi, just wanted to tell you that you can listen to a brand new PLUTONIUM track on Myspace! Namely the title track of the upcoming second album, called “Devilmentertainment Non-stop”. I hope you enjoy it! /J
Doom will never die, DOOMRAISER too! As one door closes, another opens. Valerio has decided to leave the band; he wants to concentrate more on his other projects. We all wish Valerio the best of luck with his new vocation. He was, and remains, a formidable guitarist and was an integral part of DOOMRAISER. However, it is with great pleasure that DOOMRAISER announce that Valerio’s replacement is to be none other than our good friend and brother, the fearsomely talented musician Willer. He played bass with evil blacksters Grimness and he’s involved in Black Land, an awesome and obscure heavy psychedelic band from Rome. Practices have been going very well, and Willer is already adding a new, acid and exciting dimension to the band as a whole. His first gig will be at Sinister Noise Club in Rome on the 21th November: a special and drunken night celebrating the birthday of one of the most important Italian underground rock scene club! Stay tuned… and slower, harder, drunker!
