This is a free service that actually and reliably delivers great music. It offers premium services such as the metal album subscription, which is actually not a bad idea! I’m a lifelong headbanger, having discovered the music (and the good people who make it as well as those who listen to it) in myvteenage years in the 80s. The Gimme Metal app plays thru my car radio whenever I drive. If you love the sound of metal, you owe it to yourself to download this app! Support metal music!!
i thought this was supposed to be a contender for other music streaming apps. it’s just a bunch of useless podcasts jumbled together in a poorly designed and confusing ui layout. not to mention there’s a constant pop-up window for their premium service that takes up nearly half of the screen and you cannot get rid of it. uninstalled!
Great app. There are plenty of different DJs playing what inspires them from 70s rock to the blackest of metal and all around and in between. I used to turn to metal and other genre magazines to discover new bands and genres, but now I don’t have the time for it so this app exposes me to all kinds of new sounds while at home, walking, or at the gym. Commercial radio just plain sucks. The paid subscription lets you play programs on demand but just streaming live for free is great too.
The good: interesting selection of metal and shows that isn’t available elsewhere. The bad: Only 2 live streams and sometimes they run the same show. Very limited selection at times. This would only rate 3 stars if there was another Metal streaming service. Also, feels like a work in progress. Hopefully it will improve in time. Could easily be 5 stars if they put in the effort to make it so.
