About Me:

A lot of people know me as "Mike Metal" (not "Metal Mike" ...although people will call me that from time to time).

✝†✝

I've been playing guitar for 7 years. Over the last year, I haven't been playing as much because of college and the work, but I'm starting to play more often again.

There are many Metal Mikes, but there's only one Mike Metal.

I LOVE metal (if you couldn't tell already haha). I listen to REAL metal. My favorite style is melodic death metal (especially Swedish). I also love power metal, thrash, and some progressive stuff.

As a vocalist:
-I've had no training.
-Began singing naturally at a time too early for me to remember.
-Began teaching myself how to do harsh vocals at around the age of 17... I'm now 23.
-I can do all sorts of vocals and intend to continue growing and learning as many different styles and forms as possible (this applies more to harsh vocals), as well as expanding my vocal range.
-Currently, my favorite vocalist is Christian Alvestam

You've probably heard of ChromeCelica00... another youtube metal guitarist. He's a close friend of mine and we play guitar together all the time. We have also released a few combined videos that feature both of us playing riffs we wrote. Check his channel out if you haven't already. Search his username: ChromeCelica00


The term metalcore pisses me off because of what it's associated with (all the poser guitarists on here who just take someone else's stuff and claim it as theirs. and i HATE deathcore. all it is is is a ripoff of REAL death metal).

Scenesters who think they're metal need to go bathe in lava. there is no metal to be found in ANYTHING regarding scene.

Leave comments on my vids tellin me what you think... I always enjoy a good conversation about metal, guitars, and vocals.
